Barujari cone (Gunung Barujari) is an active volcano on the island of Lombok in Indonesia. A "baby volcano", it is inside the Mount Rinjani volcano. [3]
The Cone Initially Erupted In 1966 And Continued To Grow Rapidly
Mount Rinjani's caldera formed in an explosive eruption in 1257. The Barujari cone is at the eastern end of Lake Segara Anak. It erupted in September 2014 leading to an evacuations of a few hundred tourists visiting the mountain.[4][5] In November 2024, flights to Bali were cancelled due to ash spewing from the Barujari.[6]
