Gunung Malabar, Stratovolcano in West Java, Indonesia

Mount Malabar rises 2,343 meters above sea level, featuring steep slopes formed through layers of volcanic materials near Bandung.

The volcano experienced its final eruption during the Pleistocene epoch, between 4.4 and 2.6 million years ago.

The mountain carries the name ᮌᮥᮔᮥᮀ ᮙᮜᮘᮁ in traditional Sundanese script, reflecting its deep connection to local Indonesian heritage.

The mountain slopes contain multiple tea plantations and display four distinct forest zones, including Dipterocarp and Montana varieties.

Water erosion has carved deep valleys along the mountain sides, with volcanic deposits reaching depths of 1,000 meters within a 10-kilometer radius.
