Volcanoes in Turkey

Mount Ararat

This is the highest mountain and volcano in Turkey and it is 5137 meters high. It is not active anymore: as a matter of facts, its last eruption goes back to 1840.

On the top of this volcano there are four different chimneys and they are so high that they can be considered to be mountains themselves. There is always snow on there, no matter of the season, because of the great height.
