Gunung Tampomas, Stratovolcano in West Java, Indonesia

Gunung Tampomas is a stratovolcano in West Java rising to about 1,684 meters (5,526 feet) above sea level. Its eastern flank displays young lava flows, while black rock formations appear near the summit as evidence of volcanic activity.

The Bujangga Manik manuscript, likely written at the end of the 15th century, names the mountain Tompo Omas, in the Medang Kahiangan region. The name means "winnows of gold" in Sundanese. In the 20th century, rock from the mountain was quarried for the Mrica Hydroelectric Dam project.

Local people see this volcano as a sacred place tied to Sundanese spiritual traditions and beliefs. The local name Sanghiyang Taraje reflects how communities understand the mountain through their own cultural lens and spiritual practices.

Three main hiking routes reach the summit, with varying terrain through mountain rainforest and past water springs. Each trail offers different difficulty levels, so visitors can choose based on their experience and available time.

About 200 metres north of the Sanghiyang Taraje summit lies Pasarean, a sacred tomb said to be the petilasan of Prabu Siliwangi and Dalam Samaji from the Sunda Kingdom. The mountain area is also called Agro Gusti Kencanawati, after a female spirit said to reside there.
