It is located in the Karangasem Regency at the eastern end of the island and has a long history of eruptive activity. Notable eruptions occurred in 1841 and most recently in the 1963–1964 event, which caused fatalities and extensive ashfall, with renewed unrest beginning in 2017 that led to evacuations and travel disruptions.
