Sierra Nevada, Stratovolcano in La Araucanía Region, Chile.
Sierra Nevada rises to 2,554 meters within Conguillío National Park, featuring alternating layers of lava flows and volcanic rocks across its slopes.
The volcano experienced its last confirmed eruptions during the Pleistocene period, producing andesitic and basaltic flows that shaped the current landscape.
Local mountaineering groups and geologists study this peak as part of their research into the volcanic formations of southern Chile.
Access to Sierra Nevada requires permits through Conguillío National Park, with mountain routes varying according to seasonal weather patterns.
The volcano stands near two other major peaks, Llaima and Lonquimay, forming a sequence of geological formations in the Chilean Andes.
