Takawangha is a volcano within the Aleutian Islands in Alaska. It is located on the Tanaga Island, to the east of Tanaga and Sajaka, the other main volcanoes on the island. At a height of 1,462 m, it is the second largest volcano of the triage. It is mostly covered in ice and contains tephra in various areas of it. It is believed to have been created during the Pleistocene geological epoch or before, due to containing deposits which are both glaciated and unglaciated. During the Holocene period, Takawangha erupted several different times, spewing blocky lava from craters close to the top of the volcano. Based on field work studies, it is known that Takawangha erupted within the last millennium.
