Gateway to lakes and volcanoes

Osorno is a beautiful city located in the Los Lagos Region, on the banks of the Rahue River, characterized by its proximity to incredible natural landscapes. It is only an hour from Puyehue National Park, a gigantic wilderness area that offers natural hot springs and hiking trails in the middle of native forests.
