Indonesia's second-highest volcano at 3,726 metres offers one of Southeast Asia's most rewarding multi-day treks, culminating at the majestic Segara Anak crater lake. The turquoise lake sits at 2,000 metres and is flanked by a younger cone, Gunung Baru, which still vents steam and provides a surreal volcanic landscape.
