History
Franciscan Friar Francisco Alvarez Villanueva mention in 1780 Maullín River as the limit between the Spanish possessions and the "Cunco nation" to the north.[4]
The river was first explored extensively in 1856 and 1857 by the Chilean Navy officers Francisco Hudson and Francisco Vidal Gormaz.[5] The area around Llanquihue Lake was settled in the second half of the 19th century by German immigrants, who received land from the government in a scheme to encourage settlement in this area.[6]
