Cerro Pollone is a glaciated mountain of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field in Patagonia, located on the border between Chile and Argentina, west of Mount Fitz Roy, west of Cerro Domo Blanco and in the northern part of the Chaltén mountain range.
Previously Chile claimed the entire mountain, but after the arbitration decision of the dispute of the Desert Lagoon in 1994, the limit was defined in the hill, being recognized as a binational landmark by both countries.

In September 2016, Austrian alpinist Markus Pucher ascended the peak solo during the harsh Patagonian winter.
