GEOSITE
Moñe Hill (Cerro Moñe)
An unmissable panoramic view of the local landscape reveals Mount Moñe, one of the geosites in the Río Ibáñez commune. Located approximately 5 kilometers southeast of Villa Cerro Castillo, it is the most representative example of a glacial threshold in the General Carrera Province.
Its geological history is extensive: it formed underground 100 million years ago, then weathering and fault activity brought it to the surface, and finally, glaciers over the past million years shaped its current form.
Did you know that Mount Moñe was once a mine? What minerals were extracted there?
We look forward to sharing more information about this geosite through the various community activities we will carry out as part of the Chelenko Geopark project.
