Uruguay

Overland Travel in Uruguay

Do you want an easy way of starting your overland travels in South America? Begin in Uruguay. A safe and easygoing country, Uruguay allows you to ease into a life of overlanding. Leisurely explore the hilly regions home to grape plantations and friendly towns where people don’t lock their homes.

Follow the Río de la Plata with colonial towns (but expect hordes of visitors) or instead focus on the east coast – while busy in summer season as well, you may find you’re all alone outside the high season, making rough camping pure joy.
