1. Sinabung
Sinabung becomes the most active volcanoes in the Karo regency, North Sumatera with so many most endangered animals in Indonesia live there. It reported that the volcano now actively erupted when about two days ago it showed the heavy cloud within the incandescent lava. That makes the government clean the area, and the people there should be evacuated to the safest place.
2. Kerinci
Kerinci becomes the most active volcanoes in Jambi. It is also claimed as the highest mountain there with beautiful scenery. People keep hiking there even though they have known that the mount is active.
In April 2020, the Kerinci mount shown magma activism with about 105 times of earthquakes. That has become more serious, with the amplitude within 0.5 mm and a tremor earthquake every 25 seconds.
3. Anak Krakatau
Anak Krakatau becomes the most active volcanoes in Indonesia, specifically in the middle of the Sout of Lampung sea. The explosion of these volcanoes was so big that capable to make a big tsunami up to Jakarta’s sea.
In April 2020, the government avoids every people to get there specifically for hiking or tourist. Since it has big magnitudes and tremor earthquakes that frequently happen, the government restricted the area with a good reason. They even raised the level of crisis for the mount at level II.
4. Merapi
Merapi Mount is the most active volcanoes in Yogyakarta a long time ago just like the active volcano in Central Java. The big explosion in 2006, make people more concern about the volcanoes for safety reasons. Even though the status decreases now the safe level, but the mount can explode in a certain way.
Nowadays, people should be more careful before take hiking to the Merapi mount. Yogyakarta’s government suggest them to find the right information about the status of the volcanoes before go there.
5. Semeru
Semeru is famous for its beauty so that it becomes one of the most favorable mountains to hike in Malang, East Java. Even though the mountain is an active volcano, that doesn’t mean that they will avoid getting there as the mountain has the best Indonesian mountain track.
In April 2020, Semeru raises the level of the dangerous mountain to level II. That because the activity on its volcanoes rises rapidly within 11-22 mm of the amplitudes. It was exploded with 17 times of earthquake periodically with about 65 – 150 minutes.
6. Ibu Volcano
Ibu becomes one of the most active volcanoes in Halmahera, the North of Maluku. It has about 1,325 m highest above deep water of the sea with beautiful scenery from the mountain.
In around April 2020, the government risen the status of the dangerous level at level II, after it shown the big clouds above 200 – 300 m above the top of the mount. The government even restricted the area up to 3.5 km to have to be clear from people.
7. Dukono
Dukono is another active volcanoes in Halmahera after the Ibu mount. It has about 1229 m high above deep water of the sea with beautiful scenery so that people always want to hike there.
But, in the middle of the year 2020, the Dukono becomes actively shown some magnitude activity around the mountain. It showed about one time of tremor earthquake with 4mm of amplitude. From the top of the mountain is also shown as the biggest and dark cloud with about 400 m in height.
At that time, the government restricted the areas and should be clear from people within 3 km from the mount. There was also an incentive ash rain around the mountain that spread immediately following the faster of the wind.
8. Soputan
Soputan becomes the most active volcanoes in Manado, the north of Sulawesi. It has about 1,809 m of high above deep water of the sea with beautiful scenery from the top of the mount. In October 2019, this amount becomes the most active volcanoes in Indonesia as the government risen the safe level into level II.
In April 2020, the Soputan shown vulcanic activity with more than ten times fall earthquake and about 46 harmonic earthquakes frequently. The government also restricted the area with a radius of about 1.5 km to clear from people. Some people that live near the mount was moving to the safest place around the Manado city.
9. Bromo
Bromo becomes the most beautiful volcano in Malang, East Java that has the best mountain views in Indonesia. Every year there always a sacred ritual from Hinduism there. Even though people are known as it is the active volcanoes, they insist to do the ritual with the volcanic activity that frequently happens behind.
In April 2020, there was a tremor earthquake that happens periodically within 0.5 – 1 mm of the amplitude. That makes the government finally closed the area for tourism visits and some ritual activity for instance periods.
So, there are some glances about some of the mount volcanoes in Indonesia that still active. Until now, the government keeps observing the mount regularly to prevent the explosion that will damage affect people around the mountain. They also give the people the awareness of the disaster so that they keep safe during the eruption.
