What is "sabancaya"

Sabancaya is an active stratovolcano in the Andes of southern Peru, about northwest of Arequipa. It is the most active volcano in Peru and is part of a north-south chain of three major stratovolcanoes, including the extinct and eroded volcano Wallqa Wallqa at the northern end, the dormant volcano Ampato to the south, and Sabancaya in the middle. Sabancaya hosts several glaciers which cover an area of about and descend as low as on its flanks.
