THE 10 MOST FRIGHTENING ACTIVE VOLCANOES AROUND THE WORLD

1)- NYIRAGONGO (DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO)

  This volcano in the Democratic Republic of Congo is one of the most dangerous volcanoes. The 3,470-meter volcano last erupted in 2002, turning a large area into ashes.

2)- ARENAL (COSTA RICA)

  This 1,657-meter-high volcano is Costa Rica’s most active and dangerous volcano. The volcano, which last erupted in 2010, caused the death of 87 people and 30,000 cattle.

3)- EYJAFJALLAJOKULL (ICELAND)

   Don’t feel bad! No one except Icelanders can read this word at once. This volcano last erupted in 2010 and created an ash cloud that caused thousands of travelers to be stranded in Europe for six days. It is unpredictable when this active volcano, which has an altitude of 1,666 meters, will erupt.

4)- PACAYA (GUATEMALA)

  This volcano, which erupts frequently, has an altitude of 2,552 meters. Eruptions of Pacaya, one of Guatemala’s most active volcanoes, can be easily seen from the capital city of Guatemala City.

5)- MERAPI (INDONESIA)

  This volcano, mostly covered with its own smoke, has erupted in 2010 and killed hundreds of people. This volcano, which last erupted in 2020, is very active and constantly boiling.

6)- KILAUEA (HAWAII)

  This 1,247-meter volcano is so active that its name in Hawaiian means “to vomit”. It moves very fast because it has a much more fluid consistency compared to the consistency of known lava.

7)- VILLARRICA (CHILE)

  This subglacial volcano is one of Chile’s most active volcanoes. This magnificent view of 2,847 meters has caused many destructions in its recent past.

8)- YASUR (VANUATU)

  Yasur, a relatively dwarf volcano with a height of 361 meters, erupts lava and ash several times an hour. The volcano, which has been active especially since 2013, is famous for its unpredictable eruptions.

9)- STROMBOLI (ITALY)

  Stromboli, a small island in the north of Sicily, is a difficult mountain to climb despite its modest size (926m). At nightfall, glowing lava erupts, which looks magnificent.

10)- PITON DE LA FOURNAISE (RÉUNION)

  The massive Piton de la Fournaise on the island of Réunion is one of the world’s most active volcanoes. The volcano, which last erupted in 2020, has a height of 2,632 meters.
