'''Licancabur''' is a highly symmetrical Laguna Verde in Bolivia and northwest of Juriques volcano. The volcano dominates the landscape of the Salar de Atacama area. The summit crater is about 400&nbsp;m wide and contains a 70 by 90&nbsp;m crater lake which is ice-covered most of the year.  This is one of the highest lakes in the world, and despite air temperatures which can drop to -30&nbsp;°C, it contains planktonic fauna.

Licancabur's most recent volcanic activity produced extensive lava flows which extend 6&nbsp;km down the northwest and southwest flanks, with older lava flows reaching 15&nbsp;km and pyroclastic flow deposits as far as 12&nbsp;km from the peak.  Extensive Inca ruins are located at the summit, providing proof of pre-Columbian ascents as well as evidence for a lack of major eruptions over the past 500–1,000&nbsp;years.

==Naming==
The word Licancabur is the Castilianization of a Kunza name used by the Atacameño people to refer to the volcano, which means "Mountain of the People".

'''Licancabur''' é un estratovolcán situado na fronteira entre Chile e Bolivia, xunto á Laguna Verde. A súa última erupción tivo lugar no Holoceno.

Crese que o lago de 70×90 metros que hai na cima é o lago situado a maior altura do mundo, e a pesar das temperaturas de -30 °C contén numerosos seres vivos.
