Riniwe Lake

Lake Riñihue lies in the Andean foothills east of Valdivia, its basin carved by glaciers and surrounded by wooded hills. It receives water from Lake Panguipulli through the Enco River, and its outlet becomes the San Pedro River. Farther west the river joins the Calle-Calle and Valdivia, carrying the waters of the lake district to the Pacific. Riñihue is the westernmost lake in a connected chain of southern Andean waters.
