This guide is intended for those who are intrigued by the various manifestations of volcanicity, either via television programmes, videos or books, and who wish to experience first hand the consequences of such without having to trek long distances in dangerous terrain. Although geological technicalities have to be introduced these are kept to a minimum and a glossary is incorporated.
