Me & Franco on the road

Me & Franco on the road

Ruta 40, San Juan province, north Argentina

The Route 40 is the longest road in Argentina and one of the largest in the world - more than 5000 km. It starts close to Rio Gallegos (where I live now) in Patagonia (so at the south east end of the American continent) at sea level and goes up until almost the border to Bolivia (5000 m high).

I made this distance within 5 days by car and bus - quite a ride ;). Already the roadtrip by car (a circuit in the northern provinces) were 4000 km.
After more than one year in Argentina I know almost every cm of the Ruta 40. Just missing a small part between El Bolson and Perito Moreno (Chubut province).

For more information see wikipedia.
