Dieng Plateau is an active volcanic region, and it can be said is a giant volcano. Crater craters often found there. The average height is about 2.000m above sea level. Dieng cool temperatures in the winter approaches, ranging from 15-20 ° C in the daytime and 10 ° C at night. In the dry season (July and August), sometimes the temperature can reach 0 ° C in the morning and bring frost to the locals called bun upas ("dew poison") because it causes damage to agricultural crops.

Geology
Dieng plateau (DTD) is a plateau with volcanic activity below the surface, such as Yellowstone or the Tengger Highlands. This is but a caldera with the mountains surrounding the edges. There are many craters as the discharge gas, water vapor and various other volcanic material. This situation is very dangerous for the people who inhabit the region, as evidenced by the presence of gas eruption craters Sinila 1979. Not only the toxic gas, but also may be possible earthquakes, mud eruptions, landslides and flooding.
In addition to the crater, there are volcanic lakes that contain water mixed with sulfur that has distinctive yellow-green color.
In biology, the activity of the Dieng volcanic interesting because it is found in hot waters near the crater of some species of thermophilic bacteria ("hot love") that can be used to reveal early life on Earth.
Craters
Here are the craters in the DTD:
- Candradimuka
- Sibanteng
- Siglagah
- Sikendang, potentially toxic gases
- Sikidang
- Sileri
- Sinila, potentially toxic gases
- Weigh, potentially toxic gases

Sibanteng Crater
Dieng is located in the village Sibanteng Kulon. This crater has erupted phreatic two in January 2009 (15/1), leading to the tourist area of Dieng to be closed several days in anticipation of gas poisoning disaster. The eruption of the mud was heard up to 2km, Perhutani's damaging the surrounding forest, and causing landslides that block time, the White River Serayu child.
Previous crater Sibanteng erupted in July 2003.
