The Villarrica volcano is one of the most iconic and active in South America. With its perfect cone reaching 2,847 meters, it rises between Lakes Villarrica and Calafquén, forming part of Villarrica National Park. At its summit lies a permanent lava lake, visible as an intense plume of smoke. It is a classic destination for hiking and mountain enthusiasts.
