The Vakak Group (also spelled Wakak) consists of 18 dacitic and trachytic volcanoes located WSW of Kabul. It is the northernmost of a group of small volcanic fields in the Ghanzi region and consists of endogenous lava domes, one of which occupies an old caldera. The age of the volcanoes is not known precisely; they were tentatively considered to be of Pleistocene age (Lapparent et al., 1965) and were listed as Recent by Bordet (International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior, 1973).
