    Cycling Patagonia – An Autumn Adventure // A Documentary // Around the World by Bicycle



    Our two month journey through Patagonia proved to be one of our greatest experiences yet, and an incredible conclusion to 11 months and 12,760 km cycling in South America.

    From late-March to mid-May 2023, we rode 2,500 km through the breathtaking Patagonian wilderness, and essentially had the whole place to ourselves. For us, cycling Patagonia at the beginning of the low-season was therefore one of the best decisions we’ve ever made, and we were even surprised by the beauty of the spectacular autumn (fall) colors.

    Join us on our adventure through Patagonia!

      Note: 95% of the places visited in the video are from Chile as also read in the description of the video (Chaitén, Coyhaique, the Carretera Austral, Cerro Castillo, General Carrera Lake, Cochrane, Villa O'Higgins, Patagonian fjords and Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego)

      The only place in Argentina that appears in the video (and in the description) is Ushuaia. In addition, there is an unforgivable mistake from a geographical point of view: Ushuaia is where Argentina ends; but further south there is more territory corresponding to Chile (Puerto Williams, Cape Horn Achipelago and Diego Ramirez Islands) and these are the territories that make up the true "end of the world". Just look at any map to prove it.

      Call attention to the irresponsibility of these foreigners who come to Chile and do not accurately specify the places visited (including 2 completely different territories under the concept of "Patagonia"), with erroneous geographical information that any 5-year-old child age could check by looking at Google satellite map

      Finalizing: The denomination "patagonia" is absolutely Chilean; there is no "Argentine Patagonia"; This was a contemporary appropriation (theft) of the Argentines for purely tourist purposes.

      "Patagonia" derives from the expression "patagones" with which the Portuguese navigator, Hernando de Magallanes (1480-1521) identified the natives who inhabited the famous Strait of Magellan; and this strait is Chilean and has always been Chilean.

      What was truly lovely to watch was the two of you on a journey together. There is a scene in the movie Contact, where Jodie Foster's character meets some intelligent being disguised as her father and he tells her: "See, in all our searching, the only thing we found that makes the emptiness bearable, is each other." This quote came to mind as I watched your journey. Yes, you could have done it alone as individuals, I suspect it was a different type of joyful to do it together. The entire adventure was full of beauty and kindness. I have traveled in those parts myself, I'm aware of the silence and vastness, it's both calming and overwhelming. Congratulations to you both, for two years you experienced something that likely very few couples are able to accomplish on this planet Earth. It was lovely to watch.

      I think I saw you guys in Santa Lucia! My friend and I cycled from the South to North in early April and cut off there to head back in to Argentina, could it have been you?! Really enjoyed the video revisiting all the beautiful places we passed through, thanks for sharing.
