Recommendations

Masyarakat di sekitar Gunung Api Kerinci dan pengunjung/wisatawan tidak diperbolehkan mendaki kawah yang ada dipuncak Gunung Api Kerinci di dalam radius 3 km dari kawah aktif (masyarakat dilarang beraktivitas di dalam radius bahaya/KRB III). Terkait potensi bahaya Gas Vulkanik konsentrasi tinggi serta lontaran batuan jika terjadi erupsi tiba-tiba tanpa didahului oleh gejala kenaikan aktivitas yang jelas.

Sebaiknya jalur penerbangan di sekitar Gunung Api Kerinci dihindari karena sewaktu-waktu masih memiliki potensi letusan abu dengan ketinggian yang dapat mengganggu jalur penerbangan.
