Maullín River

Maullín River (Spanish: Río Maullín) is a river of Chile located in the Los Lagos Region. The river originates as the outflow of Llanquihue Lake, and flows generally southwestward, over a number of small waterfalls, emptying into the Gulf of Coronados. The lower course of the river is a tidal estuary. The wetlands of Maullín stand out for their diversity of aquatic birds when compared to other locations of the Chilean coast. In the estuary Laguna Quenuir is the place known to have the largest diversity of bird fauna.
