Mousa Ali, Stratovolcano at Ethiopia-Eritrea-Djibouti tripoint, Eritrea.

Mousa Ali rises to 2,021 meters above sea level, featuring two distinct summits separated by a kilometer-wide caldera containing rhyolitic lava domes.

The Eritrea-Ethiopia Boundary Commission designated the mountain summit as an official tripoint marker between the three nations in 2002.

Two groups of Adrúmmi Afar people maintain their settlements near the mountain slopes, adapting their daily lives to the volcanic environment.

Mountain temperatures fluctuate between 7 degrees Celsius in winter and 26 degrees Celsius in summer, requiring careful preparation for ascents.

The northern summit reaches 1,871 meters while the southern peak extends to 2,021 meters, with a deep caldera of 1,514 meters between them.

GPS coordinates: 12.46880,42.40421
