Description:

Dallol is a volcanic explosion crater in the Danakil Depression. It has been formed by the intrusion of basaltic magma in Miocene salt deposits and subsequent hydrothermal activity. The volcano, pushes up hot water loaded with minerals that are deposited on the surface, creating this colourful other-worldly landscape. Dallol is situated right in the middle of the African Rift, an active volcanic zone where temperatures can sore to 50C and above.
The Danakil Depression, Ethiopia, East Africa.
