Garbuna Group

The Garbuna Group of volcanoes consists of three volcanic peaks, Krummel, Garbuna, and Welcker, atop a shield volcano. They are located at the southern end of the Willaumez Peninsula, just to the west of the town of Kimbe, in West New Britain Province, Papua New Guinea. Garbuna contains a large thermal field, probably Papua New Guinea's largest.
