Volcán Villarrica with Centro de Ski Pillán

WI_ch242_157.jpg

Pillán ski resort, located at the slopes of the 2860 m high stratovolcano Villarrica, one of the most active in the country and the entire Andes. It typically displays strombolian eruptions, often accompanied by lahars which evolve due to the sudden melting of snow and ice. The fume rising from the summit crater emerges from a lava lake.
