Carrán-Los Venados, Volcanic complex in Los Ríos Region, Chile.

The Carrán-Los Venados complex includes multiple scoria cones, maars, and small stratovolcanoes, with Los Guindos reaching 1,114 meters in elevation.

The volcanic group experienced notable eruptions in 1955 when the Carrán maar formed and in 1979 when the Mirador cinder cone displayed activity.

The presence of this volcanic formation influences local Chilean traditions and shapes the daily lives of communities in the Los Ríos region.

Visitors need specialized transportation and local guides to access the volcanic complex, as the terrain presents technical navigation challenges.

The complex sits at the intersection of major tectonic faults, including Liquiñe-Ofqui and Futrono, on a thin crust only 30 kilometers deep.

GPS coordinates: -40.31424,-72.07054
