Chile

Overland Travel in Chile

The long, elongated string-bean sized country along South America’s west coast has everything it needs to make Chile a perfect country for your overland journey.

The enormous Atacama Desert in the north allows you to get lost, have an off-road adventure, or to explore ghost towns dating from a glorious past. The second wilderness lies in the far south, a wild landscape with glaciers where few people live.

Driving the Carretera Austral is the ultimate way to see one of the remotest regions in the world.
