Palomo, Stratovolcano in Cachapoal Province, Chile.
The Palomo volcano rises to 4,850 meters above sea level in the central Chilean Andes, featuring prominent granite rock formations called Needles of Palomo.
According to geological studies by SERNAGEOMIN, the volcano has not shown any recorded eruptions in the past 10,000 years, leading to potential removal from active status.
The volcano stands within Rio de Los Cipreses National Reserve, which preserves native wildlife and represents a significant natural heritage of central Chile.
Four major glaciers originate from the volcano slopes, creating the most extensive ice zone in central Chile that supplies water to the surrounding region.
The Great Plateau glacier formation extends 4 kilometers wide and 7 kilometers long, feeding into the 12-kilometer Universidad Glacier through an ice overflow.
