Mount Pendan is an active volcano on Sumatra, Indonesia. There is little known about the volcano.[1]

As sources and references about Mount Pendan are solely based on the Smithsonian listing which lacks further information, there are doubts about the volcano's existence. The coordinates reveal a mountain covered by dense forest. It is unclear whether Pendan is an actual volcano, a misidentified mountain or valley which may or may not be of volcanic origin, or a copyright trap fabricated by the Smithsonian Institution.
