It's the second highest volcano in Indonesia., called Mount Rinjani or Gunung Rinjani. It's an active volcano in Indonesia on the island of Lombok. The volcano and the spectacular crater lake Segara Anak, are protected by a national park established in 1997. The 6 km by 8.5 km, oval boiler is filled partially by a lake known as Segara Anak (about 2000m above sea level and is estimated at between 300 m to 200 m depth); the caldera also contains hot springs. The eruptions of 1994, 1995, and 1996 have formed a small cone, Gunung Baru (or Mountain New - approximately 2300m above sea level) in the center of the caldera and lava flows from these eruptions have entered the lake.
