Palomo ("dove"; after the shape of its glaciers[2]) is a 4,860 metres (15,940 ft) high Chilean stratovolcano located in the commune of Machali, Cachapoal province,[3] Libertador General Bernardo O'Higgins Region, west of Caldera del Atuel.

Palomo rises from an elevation of about 3,215 metres (10,548 ft), and it covers a surface area of 22.4 square kilometres (8.6 sq mi).

[1] 4.5 kilometres (2.8 mi) northeast of Palomo lies the 3,300 metres (10,800 ft) high Andrès subsidiary vent.

[8] The southern slope features the 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) Universidad Glacier, which forms the Rio San Andrés which drains into the Tinguiririrca River.

[12] Future activity at Palomo might generate lahars through the melting of ice, which could affect the valleys of the rivers draining the volcano.
