Conguillío National Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Conguillío National Park is located in the Andes, in the provinces of Cautín and Malleco, in the Araucanía Region of Chile. This national park covers about 608 square kilometres. Among the attractions in the park are the Llaima volcano, Sierra Nevada and wild landscapes characterized by islands of vegetation completely surrounded by vast areas of basaltic to andesitic lava flows. Extensive forests, formed mainly by Araucarias and Nothofagus, and lagoons increase the scenic beauty of the park. It is also known as "Los Paraguas" (The Umbrellas), due to the shape of the Monkey Puzzle trees.
