Keli Ebulobo, Stratovolcano on Flores Island, Indonesia

Keli Ebulobo is a stratovolcano on Flores Island with a distinctive conical shape and steep slopes. The mountain's structure shows layers of hardened lava and ash built up through repeated eruptions over thousands of years.

Eruptions at Ebulobo have been recorded since 1830, when lava flowed down the northern slope. Further explosive eruptions at the summit crater occurred in 1888, 1910, 1924, 1938, 1941, 1969 and 2013.

Local communities view this mountain as a sacred place woven into their traditions and daily practices. This spiritual connection continues to shape how people interact with the land around it.

The location is remote and requires careful planning before visiting, as infrastructure is limited. It is wise to arrange local guides in advance and check weather conditions, as access can vary depending on the season.

The summit holds a flat lava dome, and the 1830 record describes lava flowing down the northern slope rather than from the top. Later explosive eruptions were centred on the summit crater, in 1888, 1910, 1924, 1938, 1941, 1969 and 2013. The symmetrical cone rises to 2,124 m above Boa Wae district.
