Kawah Sileri
Dieng's largest crater, with a milky grey-green hot lake that steams constantly and has seen several sudden steam eruptions.
Kawah Sileri lies in the western part of the Dieng Plateau. It covers about 4 hectares and is the largest active crater on the plateau. The lake water ranges from milky white to grey-green, bubbling and steaming year-round, with farmland around it. In recent years there have been several sudden steam eruptions, one of which injured tourists in 2017. Whether it is open depends on the alert level set by the volcano monitoring authorities, so always obey the warning lines and do not approach the lakeshore. It is about 7 km from Dieng village and can be combined with Sumur Jalatunda.
