                              Mt.Batur

Mount Batur (Gunung Batur) is an active volcano located at the center of two concentric caldera north west of Mount Agung, Bali, Indonesia. South east side of the larger 10 × 13 km caldera contains a caldera lake. Inner 7.5-kilometer-wide caldera, which was formed during emplacement of the Bali (or Ubud) ignimbrite, has been dated to about 23,670 and 28,500 years ago

Southeast wall of the inner caldera lies beneath Lake Batur; Batur cone has been constructed within the inner caldera to a height above the outer caldera rim. The Batur stratovolcano has produced vents over much of the inner caldera, but the NE-SW fissure system has localized the Batur I, II, and III craters along the summit ridge. Historical eruptions have been characterized by mild-to-moderate explosive activity sometimes accompanied by lava emission. Basaltic lava flows from both summit and flank vents have reached the caldera floor and the shores of Lake Batur in historical time. Caldera contains an active, 700-meter-tall stratovolcano rising above the surface of Lake Batur. Historically documented eruption of Batur was in 1804, and has been frequently active since then. Quite large lava fields of the 1968 eruption seen today when viewed from Kintamani, a city southwest ridge stradles of a large caldera.

Caldera is a resident and includes two main villages and Toya Bungkah Kedisan. The locals largely rely on agriculture for income but tourism has become increasingly popular due to the relatively straightforward trek to the summit of the central crater..

Lake, Lake Batur, is the largest Crater Lake on the island of Bali and is a good source of fish.

On September 20^th, 2012 UNESCO has made Mount Batur Caldera is part of the Global Geopark Network.
