The spread of lava from a volcano varies greatly depending on several factors, including the type of volcano, the viscosity of the lava, and the topography of the surrounding area. In general, lava can spread anywhere from a few meters to several kilometers from a volcano. However, some highly explosive volcanoes can produce pyroclastic flows, which are a mixture of hot gases, ash, and lava fragments that can travel much farther, potentially tens or even hundreds of kilometers.

What happens to the lava in the volcano?
Technically, it is not lava until it pours out of the volcano. While it is in the volcano it is still magma. What is not ejected in the form of lava might sink and form a plug, allowing the magma to once again build up in the volcano's magma chamber.
