Borawli

Borawli is a stratovolcano in Eastern Africa Volcanic Regions, Ethiopia, rising to 784 m.

About Borawli

Borawli stratovolcano rises above the eastern shore of Lake Afrera, also known as Lake Giulietti. The upper part of the conical edifice consists of trachytic lava flows overlying older basaltic flows. Young pantelleritic obsidian domes south of the volcano are the probable source of rounded pumice fragments found around Lake Afrera.
