Mount Kaba

Bukit Kaba (also known as Mount Kaba), (Rejang: Têbo Kabêak) is an active stratovolcano located in the Rejang Lebong Regency of the Bengkulu Province on the island of Sumatra, Indonesia. Standing at an elevation of 1,952 meters (6,404 ft) above sea level, it is part of the Bukit Barisan mountain range that runs along the western spine of Sumatra. In 1833 an eruption ejected water from the crater lake, forming lahars that produced damage and fatalities at Talang, Klingi, and Bliti villages. The mountain is situated within a protected forest area known as the Bukit Kaba Nature Recreation Park (Taman Wisata Alam Bukit Kaba). This area serves as a vital habitat for diverse Sumatran flora and fauna, including various species of monkeys, tropical birds, and endemic orchids. The lower slopes are predominantly covered in lush tropical rainforest, which transitions into sub-montane vegetation as the altitude increases.
