Mount Singgalang, Stratovolcano in West Sumatra, Indonesia

Mount Singgalang rises to 2,877 meters above sea level, forming a prominent peak in the Barisan Mountains range near Bukittinggi town.

The volcano has remained dormant since its final recorded eruption in 1800, standing together with its neighboring summit, Mount Tandikat.

Local communities near Mount Singgalang maintain traditional practices, including textile weaving in the village of Pandai Sikek at the mountain base.

The primary climbing route starts from Koto Baru Market, continues to the TVRI transmitter station, and requires 4 to 5 hours to reach the summit.

Two mountain lakes, Telaga Dewi and Telaga Kumbang, occupy the former crater at the summit, surrounded by moss-covered forest vegetation.
