1. The 'Seven Summits' challenge involves climbing the highest peak on each continent. Which peak represents Australia?

However, the more challenging and geographically inclusive Messner list includes all of Oceania, and thus recognizes Puncak Jaya (4,884 m) in Papua, Indonesia, as the highest peak on the Australian continent.
