At least 14 dacite lava domes are found within the caldera, with another five outside.<ref name=gvp/> Its slopes western contain many fumaroles, hot springs and geysers.<ref>{{Cite journal |title=Geology and conceptual model of the Domuyo geothermal area, northern Patagonia, Argentina |journal=Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research |last1=Silva-Fragoso |first1=Argelia |volume=420 |last2=Ferrari |first2=Luca |year=2021 |last3=Norini |first3=Gianluca |last4=Orozco-Esquivel |first4=Teresa |last5=Corbo-Camargo |first5=Fernando |last6=Bernal |first6=Juan Pablo |last7=Castro |first7=Cesar |last8=Arrubarrena-Moreno |first8=Manuel|doi=10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2021.107396 |bibcode=2021JVGR..42007396S }}</ref>
It names derives from the Mapuche meaning "To tremble and grumble", probably due to the geothermal activity of the volcano.
The volcano is accessible by the National Route 40 from Chos Malal, connecting with provincial route 43, passing by Andacollo.
