This massive alkaline volcanic field extends from southern Syria, across Jordan and into northwestern Saudi Arabia.This wide extended basaltic province contains more than 800 volcanic cones and around 140 dikes and ring dikes.
The Jabal al-Druze, al-Safa and Dirat al-Tulul volcanic fields (among others) form the northern, Syrian, part of the Harrat al-Shamah; al-Harrah is in the southern, Saudi Arabian, third of the field.
