Licancabur 5916m
A high, easy and quite popular peak on the Chile/Argentina border. On the summit there are some Inca ruins, including various raised terraces and a few small walls. These date from the time of the Incas when the mountain was used for religious purposes and sacrifices and were the first such ruins to be properly recorded. There is also a spectacular crater lake.
