"Where the Road Ends" BIKEPACKING El Chaltén, Argentina to Villa O'higgins, Chile [TJN EP. 9]

Between El Chalten, Argentina and Villa O'higgins Chile, there is an area without any roads. Luckily for cyclist there are some hiking trails and ferries which can be used to cross this remote area of Patagonia. This video covers the Lago de Desierto Hike-a-bike, an infamous segment among long distance cyclists and the ferry ride across Lago O'higgins, the deepest lake in the Americas.
This video follows only a small section of my journey across the Americas from Argentina to Alaska. Please subscribe and watch the other videos from "The Journey North" series to follow along.
Thanks for Watching!

Hike a biking like that is my #1 favorite way to travel. The harder the push the more fun the descent! A view like that wouldn't hurt either. Zora loves it because she gets to rest on the ascent and run on the descent.

[@KarlKroll]

agree most of the time it is worth it, however when conditions force one to hike downhill, the fun is taken out of it

[@mrcarlincool]

You are living!!! KEEP LIVING!

[@KarlKroll]

Doing my best Abraham! stay healthy!

[@FollowThomas]

Excellent!! It's amazing to ride out there. I'm riding my bike here in Florida and that's like nothing comparing with you, you are doing the REAL job.

[@KarlKroll]

not important where but just to get out and ride!

[@FollowThomas]

@@KarlKroll that's true, gotta get out there. I just got back from my 350-mile bike your here in Florida, enjoyed it. 🙂

[@user-ht6em6po5u]

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G as always

[@KarlKroll]

thank you! glad you enjoyed it!

[@Biking360]

We need more content like this . Love it. So happy to have found this channel. JP

[@KarlKroll]

Thanks JP, happy trails!

[@panchoskywalker]

Hola, Como fijaste esas botellas en la rueda delantera?

[@gregknipe8772]

all good till your favorite hiking trail becomes popular with bikers. thanks for your productions. hope too many people don't follow ; ), you there

[@KarlKroll]

I think you don't need to worry too much, check out my torres del paine video and Fitz Roy if you want to see some good hiking! No bikes allowed on those trails.

[@mrcarlincool]

bikers take care of the trails mate. you think you can traverse 30 miles everyday for days? ;)

[@kayakman9845]

I was with great fear to try what you are doing because of my health and age but we only live once and death is only once I will be doing this

[@KarlKroll]

I couldn't agree more, enjoy life while you can! Everyone should bikepack
