El volcán Huequi se compone de un conjunto de domos y depósitos piroclásticos asociados, estos últimos generados probablemente por el colapso de los domos activos aunque también se reconocen depósitos de caída y de avalancha. Se emplaza en el centro de la península de Ayacara, Chiloé Continental, sitio remoto y de difícil acceso por vía terrestre.
