Peinado, Stratovolcano in Catamarca Province, Argentina.
Peinado rises to an elevation of 5,890 meters with a 240-meter-wide summit crater containing an ephemeral lake at its peak.
The first documented climb of Peinado occurred in 1965 by mountaineer Mathias Rebitsch, marking the beginning of recorded expeditions to this summit.
The Spanish name of this volcano refers to its surface appearance, with slopes that display smooth geological patterns across its face.
Visitors require extensive mountaineering experience and proper acclimatization before attempting to reach the summit due to extreme altitude conditions.
The volcano features a fault system that influences local tectonic activity, creating specific geological formations in the surrounding landscape.
