Lanín, Stratovolcano in Andes Mountains, Chile.

The volcano rises to an elevation of 3,776 meters with a symmetrical cone shape covered in ice near the Argentina-Chile border in the Southern Volcanic Zone.

The most recent volcanic activity of Lanín occurred following the Valparaíso earthquake of 1906, marking its last recorded eruption in modern times.

The mountain forms part of two national parks, serving as a central symbol for the Argentine province of Neuquén, appearing on both its flag and anthem.

Climbers must obtain permits from Argentine National Parks management and should start their ascent early, as the summit trek requires a full day.

The volcano stands at the Atlantic-Pacific water divide of the Andes, with Tromen Lake to the north and Paimun Lake to the south.

Elevation above the sea: 3,776 m

GPS coordinates: -39.63722,-71.50306
