Hiking Nevados de Sollipulli in Chile | The Ultimate Guide

<p>Nevados de Sollipulli, or just Sollipulli, is an absolutely stunning (and massive) ice-filled volcanic caldera and volcano complex. Located just north of the adventurous town of Puc&oacute;n in central Chile, Sollipulli &mdash; while definitely not the most famous volcano in the area (that likely goes to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.backroadpackers.com/post/puc%C3%B3n-chile-travel-itinerary" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Villarrica</a>) &mdash; is still 100% worth seeking out, especially if you are interested in seeing a slightly different type of volcanic landscape.</p> <p>The trail to the caldera rim is less than 8 miles round trip (or 12.8 kilometers), with just around 3,000 feet of elevation gain (but somehow it doesn&rsquo;t feel that steep while hiking&hellip;). Plus, while the Sollipulli caldera is definitely the star of the show, along the trail, you will also be able to check out a large&nbsp;<em>araucaria</em>&nbsp;forest, take in some amazing views of nearby Llaima volcano and maybe see a bright blue glacier lake.</p> <p><a href="https://backroadpackers.medium.com/hiking-nevados-de-sollipulli-in-chile-the-ultimate-guide-d1d08d2f1d76"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
