Los Andes Province

The Los Andes Province spans across 3,054 square kilometers, encompassing four municipalities including Los Andes city, San Esteban, Calle Larga, and Rinconada.

The province developed as a vital trade corridor between Chile and Argentina, with its capital Los Andes being established in 1791 by Governor Ambrosio O'Higgins.

The province maintains traditional Chilean mountain festivals throughout the year, integrating local customs with agricultural celebrations in each of its four municipalities.

The province connects to major Chilean cities through the international Route 60, which extends from Valparaíso to the Argentinian border through Los Andes city.

Located at 2,897 meters above sea level, the province functions as a strategic point for international commerce between Chile and Argentina through the Andes mountain range.
