Peuet Sague

Peuet Sague rises to 2801 meters above sea level, featuring four distinct summits within its volcanic complex in northwestern Sumatra.

The volcano exhibited its last major activity in December 2000, marked by three substantial explosions and extensive ash deposits affecting neighboring communities.

The name originates from Acehnese language meaning 'four square', reflecting the local interpretation of the mountain's physical structure with its four peaks.

Reaching the volcanic complex requires multiple days of walking from the nearest settlement, necessitating careful preparation and local guidance for navigation.

Mount Tutung, a component of the complex, contains an active crater measuring 70 meters in diameter and 80 meters in depth.
