Patagonia (Puerto Varas to Ushuaia)

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Patagonia is a vast wilderness region spanning the southern reaches of Chile and Argentina, stretching from the Lake District town of Puerto Varas down to Ushuaia — the world's southernmost city — at the tip of Tierra del Fuego. The region is defined by dramatic landscapes: jagged granite towers, sprawling ice fields, glaciers calving into fjords, and wind-swept steppe plains. It's a bucket-list destination for trekkers, with world-famous routes like Torres del Paine's W Trek and the Fitz Roy circuit drawing hikers from across the globe. Wildlife encounters, glacier crossings, kayaking through channels, and road-tripping the legendary Carretera Austral round out the adventure.

Patagonia Overland: Puerto Varas to Ushuaia — Self-Launched

This self-launched version of G Adventures' classic Patagonia Overland route takes you from the volcanic lake district of Puerto Varas all the way to Ushuaia at the southern tip of the continent — independently. You'll trace the legendary Carretera Austral by local buses and shared transfers, hop public ferries through the fjords, camp under skies bursting with stars, and hike Torres del Paine and El Chaltén without paying for a guided group. This is one of the world's great road-trip routes: raw, remote, and utterly unforgettable. Budget roughly £1,200–£1,500 all-in versus the £2,600+ operator price — all estimates are approximate.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Patagonia (Puerto Varas to Ushuaia) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
