Bald Hill (Kalkallo)

Bald Hill is a prominent composite cone of lava and scoria with a shallow west-facing crater. Lava flows are thin and restricted on the east and north but a thick flow extends from the southwest corner and covers a wide area to the south and west of the volcano. The volcano erupted on the crest of an existing hill in the Palaeozoic sedimentary bedrock, accounting for the prominence of the present Bald Hill.
