The Carretera Austral

A 3500km journey pulling a trailer containing our 14-month-old son, Leo, through Chile and Argentina. The focus of the trip was to ride the extremely challenging, 1200km of mainly dirt road known as the Carretera Austral. This road was Pinochet's attempt to connect Patagonia with the rest of Chile, sections only finally finished in 1999. The road travels through some of the most beautiful wild landscape on the planet.
