Pichi-Ropulli, Village in Paillaco, Chile

Pichi-Ropulli is a village (aldea) in the Commune of Paillaco, in Chile's Los Ríos Region, in the Central Valley at the foothills of the Chilean Coast Range. It lies about 10 km south of the city of Paillaco, beside Ruta 5 Sur. The 2017 census recorded 700 inhabitants, 344 men and 356 women.

Pichi-Ropulli lay on the Valdivia–Victoria–Osorno stretch of the Longitudinal South railway, begun in 1888. Construction was split into two sections: Valdivia to Pichi-Ropulli station, and from there to Osorno. The works were handed over in 1897, with the station opening in April of that year.

The annual Semana Pichi-Ropullana brings residents and former inhabitants together for local competitions and community celebrations throughout the village. This event shows how much community ties matter to people living here.

The village is easy to reach and has basic facilities for visitors wanting to explore rural life. The best time to visit is during the warmer months, when weather suits outdoor activities well.

The former railway station building was converted into a private residence, preserving memories of the rail era. The neighboring warehouse area now serves as Plaza Estación de Pichirropulli, functioning as a public gathering space for the community.
