Gunung Telagabodas, Stratovolcano in Garut, West Java, Indonesia.

Gunung Telagabodas rises 2,201 meters above sea level, featuring a sulfur-rich crater lake surrounded by fumaroles and thermal springs at its summit.

The volcano's crater lake underwent notable color transformations in 1913 and 1921, followed by increased solfataric activity documented in 1927.

Local communities in Garut refer to this natural formation as Telaga Bodas, meaning White Lake, reflecting the appearance of its crater waters.

Visitors reach the volcano through Sukamenak and Sukahurip villages in Wanaraja district, requiring off-road vehicles for the final approach to the site.

The Kawah Karaha Bodas fumarole field extends 9 kilometers north of the main crater, forming an extensive geothermal system within the volcanic complex.
