Where is the loneliest volcano of the world?
Tuukka
Hi Tuukka,
Now there's a question! I have no idea, it depends on how you define lonley.
If you want a volcano that has no nearby neighbors then you might consider
Easter Island. It hasn't erupted for quite a while, but it is a long way from
any continents or other islands. However, it does have a reasonable number of
people, horses, tourists, etc. to keep it company. Perhaps the lonliest
volcanoes are those that make up the South Sandwich islands. They are a small
chain of islands south of the southern end of South America. There the ocean
is very cold and rough, and hardly anyone ever goes there. They only have
their fellow volcanoes (and penguins, I think) to keep company.
Sincerely,
Scott Rowland
