Osorno Province, Administrative province in Los Lagos Region, Chile

Osorno Province is an administrative region in Los Lagos in northern Patagonia, consisting of several municipalities spread across valleys and river plains. The city of Osorno serves as its administrative center and main hub for local commerce and services.

The territory was originally inhabited by the Huilliche people before Spanish colonization; later German settlement programs in the 1850s brought new populations and transformed the region. These successive waves of settlement shaped the demographic and economic structure we see today.

The province reflects influences from Huilliche communities, Spanish settlers, and 19th-century German immigrants, whose traditions shaped local customs, building styles, and regional identity. These layers remain visible in village names, local celebrations, and the everyday rhythm of towns.

The Cardenal Antonio Samoré Pass provides an important border crossing to Argentina via Villa La Angostura, offering a key transportation route between both countries. Travelers should note that this crossing can be affected by seasonal weather conditions.

The province has become a center for dairy and meat production, making it a significant contributor to national food supply. This focus on livestock and dairy farming has shaped the rural landscape and daily life across many communities.
