[edit] Identity
The Smithsonian Institution's Global Volcanism Program lists the San Pablo volcanic field as a recently active volcanic field with numerous geothermal areas within it.
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) does not list a San Pablo volcanic field but rather lists Laguna Maars (with each individual maar detailed), and Laguna Cone Field (with each individual cone detailed), and Mount Makiling (all listed in its inactive list). These three entries, along with Laguna Caldera, probably are congruent with the Smithsonian's San Pablo volcanic field.It is good for sight-seeing.
[edit] Smithsonian's Description
In the Philippines, the area is known as the Southwestern Luzon Volcanic Field.[1]
