Ollague

Ollague is a massive andesite stratovolcano in the Andes on the border between Bolivia and Chile. It is located southeast of the village that shares its name.

On the lower west flank of Ollague, debris avalanche hummocks surround La Porunita scoria cone and separate Salar de Ollague from Salar de Carcote.

The volcano displays fumarolic activity, particularly to the south of its summit area.

A switchback road, whose highest point reaches 5,500 m asl, leads to sulfur mines on the upper portion of Ollague.
