montagna al confine tra Argentina e Cile
Llullaillaco is a massive dormant volcano straddling the Argentina-Chile border in one of the world's driest regions, standing as the second-highest active volcano globally. It matters because of its extreme altitude and remote location in the high Puna plateau, making it significant for understanding volcanic activity at extreme elevations and in one of Earth's most inhospitable environments.

Il Llullaillaco è un vulcano che si trova nelle Ande, sul confine tra Cile e Argentina, e la sua cima raggiunge i 6.723 metri. Si tratta del terzo vulcano più alto al mondo, il primo se si considerano eruzioni ufficialmente documentate e fa parte della Cordigliera delle Ande. Il nome probabilmente deriva dal quechua: Yuyaq yaku o acqua pericolosa, nome di una laguna che era sulle sue falde nel lato argentino (laguna engañosa), pronunciata localmenteyuyaiyaco.
