Mount Empung, Stratovolcano in Tomohon City, Indonesia
Mount Empung rises 1,340 meters above sea level, forming a prominent peak in North Sulawesi's volcanic landscape next to Mount Lokon.
The mountain has maintained its geological presence throughout centuries, with records of volcanic activities shaping the surrounding Tondano region.
Local communities refer to Mount Empung as the Mountain of God, with some areas of the crater reserved for traditional nighttime ceremonies.
The trek to Mount Empung's summit requires experienced guides due to steep terrain and dense vegetation that needs clearing along the path.
From the summit, visitors observe Bunaken Island, Siladen Island, and Manado Tua Island while surrounded by fields of white Edelweiss flowers.
