The world's highest lake is the crater lake of Ojos del Salado Pool in Argentina at 6,390 metres (20,965 ft). It's on the east face of Ojos del Salado, the highest active volcano on the southeast side of the border between Chile and Argentina. The Lhagba Pool in Tibet at 6,368 m (20,892 ft) comes second.

The highest large freshwater lake in the world is Lake Manasarovar in Tibet Autonomous Region of China.

The world's highest commercially navigable lake is Lake Titicaca in Peru and Bolivia at 3,812 m (12,507 ft). It is also the largest freshwater (and second largest overall) lake in South America.
