Guallatire, Stratovolcano in Putre, Chile
The Guallatire volcano reaches an elevation of 6,071 meters and features numerous fumaroles releasing steam around its summit and flanks.
The first documented climb of Guallatire occurred in 1926 when geologist Friedrich Ahlfeld reached the summit through the established northern route.
The name derives from the Aymara word wallatiri, referring to the frequent presence of Andean geese in the surrounding mountain areas.
Climbing expeditions start from Putre, requiring a two-day journey with acclimatization stops at the Chirigualla settlement at 4,450 meters elevation.
The summit contains active fumaroles that deposit sulfur minerals, while an ice cap covers the upper sections above 5,500 meters elevation.
