Cochiquito Volcanic Group, Volcanic mountain group in Neuquén Province, Argentina.
The Cochiquito Volcanic Group comprises eight satellite cones and features a main stratovolcano peak reaching an elevation of 1,435 meters above sea level.
The formation of this volcanic complex dates back to the Pleistocene-Holocene period, contributing to the geological development of the Andes mountain range.
Local mountaineering groups regularly organize expeditions to study and document the geological characteristics of the Cochiquito Volcanic Group.
Access to the volcanic group requires proper mountain gear and technical climbing experience, with the town of Buta Ranquil serving as the main starting point.
The presence of Volcán Sillanegra, a pyroclastic cone complex within the group, provides scientists with opportunities to study volcanic formation processes.
