The Panguipulli Lake (Spanish: Lago Panguipulli) is one of "The Seven Lakes" in Panguipullis municipality, southern Chile. The lake is of glacial origin and it is enclosed by mountain ranges of the Andes, by all sides except by the west, where the town of Panguipulli lies in the Chilean Central Valley. The lake is drained by the Enco River that flows south to the Riñihue Lake.
