The Domuyo Volcano is a stratovolcano located in the Argentine province of Neuquén. With a height of , it is the highest mountain in Patagonia and is sometimes called the "Roof of Patagonia" (''"El Techo de la Patagonia"'' in Spanish).〔Some sources mistakenly refer to Monte San Valentin as the highest peak in Patagonia, despite it being only 4,058 meters, about 651 meters less than Domuyo〕 The volcano has a large wide caldera. At least 14 dacite lava domes are found within the caldera, with another five outside.〔 Its slopes contain many fumaroles, hot springs and geysers. It names derives from the Mapuche meaning "To tremble and grumble", probably due to the geothermal activity of the volcano. The volcano is accessible by the National Route 40 from Chos Malal, connecting with provincial route 43, passing by Andacollo. ==See also== *List of volcanoes in Argentina 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Domuyo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
