The Toba Caldera in North Sumatra comprises four overlapping volcanic craters that adjoin the Sumatran “volcanic front”. At 100 by 30 kilometres (62 by 19 mi) it is the world’s largest Quaternary caldera, and the fourth and youngest caldera. It intersects the three older calderas.
An estimated 2,800 km3 (670 cu mi) of dense-rock equivalent pyroclastic material, known as the youngest Toba tuff, was released during one of the largest explosive volcanic eruptions in recent geological history. Following this eruption, a resurgent dome formed within the new caldera, joining two half-domes separated by a longitudinal
At least four cones, four stratovolcanoes, and three craters are visible in the lake. The Tandukbenua cone on the northwestern edge of the caldera has only sparse vegetation, suggesting a young age of several hundred years.
Also, the Pusubukit (Hill Center) volcano (1,971 m (6,467 ft) above sea level) on the south edge of the caldera is solfatarically active.
