Until now this post on the share (July 26, 2011) Crater Sikidang active status is still steaming hot, causing water and churned like a cauldron boiling in the cooking water. Around the location of the crater there is often a sort of pool of boiling water and often used to cook eggs for penggunjung.

Crater Sikidang give other shades on tourism Dieng. Fresh green landscape suddenly vanished into the compound of this crater. As far as the eye could see, just a barren stretch of land surrounded by hills with a pool of continuous steaming far in the other end. A few meters from the entrance there is a warning sign that you be careful in moving, as well as the ban on lighting fires and throwing cigarette butts.

Walking in this crater is not random. we had to jump around and look for dry land to gain a foothold. Craters craters are everywhere. In some places the ground looks wet with boiling water turbulent. These lands are dangerous if climbed because it is very fragile and prone to landslides. Sulfur smell was overpowering. The farther to walk, the smell was getting stronger and nose piercing. A middle-aged woman standing in the middle of barren desert was wearing a hat and cover your nose. A sack lay with chunks of sulfur laid out neatly on top.
