Litli Strokkur is a small geyser in Iceland's Haukadalur geothermal area. Its Icelandic name means Little Churn and distinguishes it from Strokkur, the larger and active geyser that is the principal eruptive feature commonly associated with the valley. Litli Strokkur is described as dormant, so it i...
Why this score
Icelandic setting and active boiling support solid interest, but limited scale and international fame compared with major Icelandic geysers.

The Nevado de Toluca fumaroles are geothermal gas vents associated with the summit crater of Nevado de Toluca, a large dormant stratovolcano in central Mexico. The crater contains two named lakes, Laguna del Sol and Laguna de la Luna, within a high-altitude volcanic landscape. Fumaroles and related...
Monte Nuovo is a tuff cone in the Campi Flegrei volcanic field near Naples, Italy. It formed during an eruption that began on the night of 29 September 1538 after a long period of volcanic quiescence, producing a new cone beside Lake Avernus. The eruption is significant because Monte Nuovo is the yo...
The fumaroles of Pico de Orizaba are volcanic gas vents associated with Citlaltépetl, also known as Pico de Orizaba, in central Mexico. Fumaroles form where heated gases escape through openings in or near a volcanic edifice, and their deposits and emissions can provide information about underground...
The Sajama fumaroles are degassing vents found on Nevado Sajama, an extinct stratovolcano in Bolivia that holds the distinction of being the highest mountain in the country.
The Mocho-Choshuenco fumaroles are steam and gas vents associated with the Mocho-Choshuenco volcanic complex in southern Chile. The complex includes the Mocho and Choshuenco volcanic centers and is covered partly by glaciers. Fumaroles form where heat from the volcanic system allows underground flui...
Osorno fumaroles are gas vents on Chile's conical Osorno stratovolcano, notable for 11 recorded eruptions between 1575 and 1869.
The Descabezado Grande fumaroles are volcanic gas vents in central Chile, notable for emitting sulfur from a massive stratovolcano that experienced significant 20th-century eruptions.
