Payún Liso, Stratovolcano in Malargüe Department, Mendoza, Argentina

Payún Liso stands at 3,715 meters above sea level, rising from the plains near the Andes mountain range in western Argentina.

The volcano formed through multiple eruptions during the Quaternary period, contributing to the development of the Payunia volcanic field in Argentina.

The indigenous communities of Mendoza province incorporated the volcanic landscape of Payún Liso into their spiritual understanding of the region.

Researchers and geologists access the volcano through the provincial routes connecting to Malargüe city, the main gateway to the volcanic field.

The volcano contains distinct geological formations that resulted from various types of lava flows and volcanic materials over thousands of years.
