Tolhuaca National Park

Tolhuaca National Park is a protected area located in the commune of Curacautín within Malleco Province of Chile's La Araucanía Region. The park encompasses part of the forested lower western spurs and foothills of the Andes Mountains, protecting a landscape of significant ecological and historical importance. Established in 1935, the park was created on land that was previously part of Malleco National Reserve, which holds the distinction of being the first protected wildlife area in both Chile and South America. This makes the land within Tolhuaca National Park among the oldest continuously protected areas on the continent. The park features elevation ranging from 700 to 1,821 meters above sea level and contains several small lakes and ponds, including the notable Laguna Malleco and Laguna Verde. The imposing Tolhuaca volcano dominates the park's visual landscape, though it lies just outside the protected boundary.

Distance methodology

Geographic measurements, not driving distances

How nearby park distances are calculated

Distances use park boundaries whenever the available geometry allows it. When one or both boundaries are missing, the mapped park locations provide a clearly labelled estimate. Every value represents straight-line geographic separation and does not use roads or routing.

Boundary distance

Calculated between the nearest points of both park boundaries.

Location-to-boundary estimate

Estimated from one mapped park location to the nearest boundary of the other park.

Mapped-location estimate

Estimated between the mapped locations of both parks.
