(or Ertale or Irta’ale) is a continuously active basaltic shield volcano in the Afar Region of northeastern Ethiopia. It is situated in the Afar Depression, a badland desert area spanning the border with Eritrea. It is the most active volcano in Ethiopia and is. One of the only six in the world to have a lava lake, known to be present since 1906. Eruptions from basaltic volcanos are the calmest of volcanic events, characterized less by the explosive ejection of solid material, and more by effusive eruptions of highly liquid basaltic lava that, in one example, have been continuous for over 30 years. Represented most famously by the Hawaiian volcanoes, they build up over millennia in layers often as thin as 1 m (3), but covering huge areas. Erupting for over 700,000 years, that volcano is a mind-boggling 75,000 cubic kilometers in volume!! The Ethiopian volcano – Erta Ale – is a relative nipper at just 613 m (2,013) in height, but still manages to be an amazing 50 km (31 miles) wide. Originally a popular tourist attraction because of its Lava Lake and benign nature, the usual ugly appearance of terrorism has effectively made the area off-limits to tourists.
