The southern part of the coast of Argentina
The geographical aim of this travel section was clearly Tierra del Fuego. As far as possible and reasonable we have always tried to avoid the big Ruta 3 and drove instead over smaller dirt [...]
The northern part of the coast of Argentina
The route from Gualeguaychú to the Valdés peninsula is not particularly exciting and is characterized by flat, straight roads. But south of Trelew starts the Routa Provincial No. 1 in Chubut, which completely pleased us [...]

Infrastructure is being rebuilt
The main roads we were driving were in very poor condition and are being re-built by Chinese construction companies; sometimes over 100km at the same time. The "bypasses" are not prepared and totally destroyed by [...]
