Lake Nyos

Lake Nyos is a crater lake in the Northwest Region of Cameroon, located about 315 km northwest of Yaoundé. Nyos is a deep lake high on the flank of an inactive volcano in the Oku volcanic plain along the Cameroon line of volcanic activity. A volcanic dam impounds the lake waters. A pocket of magma lies beneath the lake and leaks carbon dioxide (CO2) into the water, changing it into carbonic acid.

Located at 6.43806, 10.2989 (Lat. / Lng.), about 2 miles away.
