After the great eruption of Ranau Volcano, grow up another volcanoes like Seminung Volcano, and become a Ranau Volcanic Complex. At the foot of Seminung Volcano often showed sulfur gas burst activity which are indicated by the death of organism in Ranau Lake. The increasing of burst gas and locally earthquacke to be the principle one to predict the possibility of volcano eruption for anticipation and decrease the impact of volcano eruption. The research objective was to determain the characteristics of rocks formation surrounding Ranau Lake using Landsat Imagery.      Keywords: Ranau Lake, Volcano, Landsat Imagery.
