Malang Plain

The Malang Plain consists of nine ash cones, maars, and volcanic plugs scattered across the elevated landscape at 680 meters above sea level.

During the Holocene period, multiple volcanic activities shaped this region, forming distinctive geological structures that define the current landscape of East Java.

Local farmers maintain agricultural practices on the nutrient-rich volcanic soil, growing crops that sustain communities throughout the Malang region.

Visitors can reach the volcanic formations through guided tours from Malang city, with several observation points providing views of the geological structures.

The collection of nine separate volcanic elements creates an uncommon geological configuration, combining maars, ash cones, and plugs in one concentrated area.
