Calbuco Volcano

Rising above the town of Puerto Varas on the shores of Lake Llanquihue, Calbuco Volcano is one of Chile’s most active and striking natural landmarks. With 36 confirmed eruptions, 13 of which have occurred since 1893, this snow-capped volcanic cone commands attention. Though not as perfectly conical as its neighbor, Osorno Volcano, Calbuco’s rugged and dynamic form is equally impressive. Visitors can marvel at its imposing presence and learn about the region’s volcanic history, making it a compelling destination for those interested in geology and natural wonders.
