ARGENTINA
Probably the word that best defines Argentina is INTENSITY, because for this beautiful country, there are no midpoints. From furious Buenos Aires, the country's capital called for decades the "Paris of South America, which lights you up with the fire of its fury for soccer and the sound of its sizzling barbecues, to the vast and fascinating Patagonia, which freezes with its impressive landscapes until it ends at the end of the world (Tierra del Fuego).
We will begin our tour with the iconic route 40, a unique route of more than 5,200 km, which runs through Argentina from south to north, parallel to the longest mountain range on planet earth, the Andes Mountains.
Bordered by the imposing mountain range and 21 national parks, Route 40 is among the world's top 3 best routes to travel on a motorcycle. Its long routes of paved, dirt, and gravel routes, added to the different climates and thermal amplitudes, make it the dream and landmark of every rider.
Buenos Aires has been called the “Paris of South America” for decades, but to know this city is to endure a decidedly more visceral affair. Beneath the neoclassical architecture, artful pastries, and sprawling green spaces is the bleeding heart of the city—a city where the soccer games are to be wept over, the whip-quick moves of tango never miss a beat, and the sounds of sizzling asado and flowing Malbec carry late into the night.
From Buenos Aires to the end of the world in 3,045 km. passing through 56 watercourses, in 5 different provinces.
Route 40, we will start with the iconic route that runs from one end of Argentina to the other, bordering the Andes mountain range. It is the longest in the country, the highest in America and the second highest in the world.
From San Martín de los Andes in Neuquén to Lake Buenos Aires in Santa Cruz. The road to the Seven Lakes, one curve after another and one lake after another. El Bolsón a magical and spiritual town in the middle of the route.
Inhospitable Patagonia along gravel roads until reaching a large lake shared between Chile and Argentina.
Ushuaia - Tierra del Fuego takes you to some of the most remote and beautiful parts of Patagonia. Turquoise lakes, irregular granite mountains and blue glaciers.
