Mount Pangrango is a dormant stratovolcano located in the Sunda Arc of West Java, Indonesia.

The origin of the name Pangrango is speculated to be from two ancient Sundanese words pang and rango which means "That which huffs and puffs", referring to the past volcanic activity of this mountain.

[4] The Mandalawangi peak of the mountain is a tripoint where the borders of Bogor, Cianjur, and Sukabumi Regencies meet.

The mountain is seen from Bogor and Sukabumi, while it is slightly obscured by the neighboring Mount Gede if seen from Cianjur.

[citation needed] Mount Pangrango serves as the headwater area for four river basins that surround it, and all four of them converge around the mountain's peak.
