Stage with not great weather, for the first part it rained. Anyway, throughout the tour we were "lucky", in the sense that the real rainy days, the ones that forced you to wear a jacket and trousers, were three or four, considering the place and the length of the tour, it went well for us. Indeed, in

Nice transfer stage, still splendid weather. The whole stage is characterized by running alongside rivers, first the Frio river from Villa S.Lucia and then after its junction with the Palena river. The first significant passages on the Carretera Austral, those with the double zeros (see photo of the

Another beautiful, spectacular and long stage with one of the most incredible episodes of this tour, the final one. We leave early and after just an hour we arrive in Chaiten. Chaiten is practically a town completely rebuilt after the volcano of the same name destroyed the city with a series of eruptions

Komoot marked this stage for me as February 4th, in reality we did it the day before... well... always mysteries of IT. On Komoot only the pedaled track is reported and not the one relating to the ferry that takes us from Hornopiren to Caleta Gonzalo, with an intermediate stretch of about 18 km, between

First stage on the Carretera Austral, first stage with ferries and first stage with rain but let's go in order. Let's talk about ferries first: in the end there will be six taken, of which five on the Carretera Austral and one in Argentina to cross Lago del Desierto. We have never had any major problems

We start from Las Cascades with the beautiful "silhouette" of the Osorno volcano always in front. Consideration: in general the Andean chain

As I always say, in addition to the places, it is the people who make a trip beautiful and above all this is absolutely true when you are away for a month, travel many kilometres, living with them. Let's start with those who didn't come: unfortunately Anna couldn't be present, it would have been a nice

Small note Komoot recorded this stage on January 31st, in reality we did it on January 30th.... Well mysteries of computing. We continue in the morning along route 40 towards Villa La Angostura. Route 40 (National Route 40 Libertador General Don Jose de San Martin) is the longest road in all of Argentina

If I had foreseen all this…. As the great master, Francesco, says. September 11, 1973 had just passed and I found myself, a young university student, at the state road in via Festa del Perdono, demonstrating against the coup in Chile which led to the death of President Allende and the subsequent long

This stage is divided into two parts, as I "did the recordings wrong". The first part, this concerns the stretch from Puyuhuapi which leads to the entrance to the Ventrisquero Colgante (the suspended glacier). The first two photos actually refer to the evening before Puyuhuapi, just to remember that
