Kerid Crater
Kerid crater formed over 6,500 years ago from a volcanic eruption that caused a cone-shaped volcano to collapse, leaving the crater seen today. The caldera measures 886 feet (270 meters) in diameter, with walls up to 180 feet (55 meters) high. Visitors can take a 20-minute loop hike around the lake for closer views. The crater’s blue-green water contrasts with red volcanic rock, visible year-round with seasonal changes.
