Cerro Pared Norte is a mountain located in the Aysén del General Carlos Ibáñez del Campo Region of Chile. It lies on the Northern Patagonian Ice Field, at the center of a mountain ridge with steep slopes and sheer cliffs, at whose southern and northern tips lie, respectively, Cerro Pared Sur (2,548 m)[1] and an unnamed summit. A glacier named after the mountain originates from their eastern slopes.[2] "Pared Norte" (Spanish for "North Wall") gets its name from its shape and location.
