Cerro Solo, Stratovolcano in Copiapó, Chile.

The Cerro Solo stratovolcano rises to an elevation of 6,215 meters above sea level in the Andes mountain range on the Chile-Argentina border.

The first successful climb to the summit of Cerro Solo occurred on February 21, 1950, by a group of four Chilean mountaineers.

The territory surrounding Cerro Solo forms part of the Catamarca High Andean and Puna Lakes Ramsar Site, preserving natural mountain ecosystems.

Mountaineers access Cerro Solo through designated hiking routes, requiring proper equipment and preparation due to the high altitude conditions.

The volcano structure includes nine different eruptive centers and contains deposits of light-colored rhyodacite from previous pyroclastic flows.
