The Los Cráteres viewpoint offers a direct view of a row of parasitic craters, between 5 and 10 meters in diameter, where lava flowed in both directions, leaving folds and hollows that are now interspersed with invasive vegetation. Some craters are heavily eroded, while others retain clear shapes, creating a striking geological landscape. It is essential to obtain tickets from pasesparques.cl before arriving, as the area is not always well-connected.
