Llullaillaco National Park

Llullaillaco National Park is a vast protected area in Chile's Antofagasta Region, situated approximately 275 kilometers southeast of the city of Antofagasta in the Andes mountain range. The park encompasses roughly 2,687 square kilometers of dramatic high-altitude terrain lying between the eastern slopes of the Cordillera Domeyko and the international border with Argentina. Its landscape is characterized by extensive semi-desert plains interspersed with quebradas, or deep ravines, while the area is crowned by the imposing summit of Llullaillaco volcano, one of the highest active volcanoes in the world. The park falls within the Central Andean dry puna ecoregion, representing one of the most ecologically distinct high-elevation desert environments on the planet. This combination of volcanic terrain, altiplano plains, and unique arid-adapted biodiversity makes the area a significant conservation priority in the Chilean protected area system.
