Laguna del Maule (volcano) well-preserved lava flow is in the extreme southwestern sector of the volcanic field. This lava flow is long and thick. This area of the Andes was subject to glaciation in the past, which has left traces especially in adjacent valleys. These valleys are U-shaped or have the form of a trench, shapes associated with glacial action. The older volcanics of Laguna del Maule have been disproportionately eroded by glacial action. Slopes around Laguna del Maule are covered by colluvium including talus slopes. The Laguna del Maule lake is not the only lake in the field. The other lakes are Laguna
