Some of the Girlsontop New Zealand are Crossing the South American continent, begin in Ushuaia in Argentina’s southernmost point and head through Chile Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and ending in Quito

Well after quite a journey through the Chilean lakes we have now crossed over the Andes back into Argentina. Have had a lot of rain which hasn’t been great for the sights and scenery but the roads have been great and the people friendly. Clocked up 2000 kms this week so pretty happy with progress. Heading to san martin de Los Andes tonight

“We are about to embark on a 6 month cycle tour through South America. We will start in Ushuaia at the Southern most point of Argentina and head towards Ecuador passing through Chile, Peru, Bolivia and finishing in Quito.”

What an awesome day we have had exploring the Tierra del fuego national park. After a breakfast of cornflakes eggs and hot chocolate we headed out on our bikes to explore. We cycled to the end of the road at the end of the world. We then hiked up to 1000 meters to get stunning views of the lakes,straits and mountains of the area. It was stunning scenery very much like the south island of new Zealand. Such an amazing day. Dog tired now though so going to call it a night. Will spend another day here tomorrow then start our journey north the day after.

Wow wow wow here we are in Ushuaia – the bottom of the world. What am incredible place – cold and bleak but stunning at the same time
We have spent the day getting food, sleeping and looking for fuel for the stove. No luck on the fuel so hopefully we will have better luck tomorrow. Planning a ride and a hike tomorrow in the tierra del fuego national park. Hope the rain stays away.
