Klabat east of Manado city is an beautiful and isolated symmetrical stratovolcano rising almost 2000 m near the eastern tip of the northern arm of Sulawesi Island, forming the highest peak of Sulawesi. Klabat is probably still an active volcano and has active fumaroles on the summit, but there are no historic eruptions. A report of an eruption in 1683 probably was from nearby Tongkoko volcano (source: GVP).
Klabat is a popular destination for excursions by local students and climbers.
