Calbuco, Active stratovolcano in Los Lagos Region, Chile.
The Calbuco volcano reaches 2,015 meters in elevation and features a summit crater measuring between 400 and 500 meters in width.
The volcano experienced 36 confirmed eruptions through the Holocene period, with 13 documented events occurring during recorded historical times.
The name originates from Mapuche language elements 'kallfü' and 'ko', which combine to reference the presence of water in the surrounding landscape.
The volcano sits within the Llanquihue National Reserve, located 49 kilometers from Puerto Varas and 69 kilometers from Puerto Montt.
The 2015 eruption released mineral-rich ash into the ocean waters, leading to substantial algal growth in the following year.
