Patagonia
The southernmost part of the South American continent is shared by both Argentina and Chile. Patagonia today comprises both the vast windswept pampas of the Atlantic seaboard, the Andean range which forms the border between Chile and Argentina, and the rugged islands where the Andean range is swallowed up by the Great Southern Ocean.
Most visitors proceed to the extreme south, to the iconic mountain parks of Fitzroy and Torres del Paine. Some continue to Tierra del Fuego, to board a cruise destined around Cape Horn or to Antarctica. A few choose to travel overland to explore the frontier country along Argentina's famed Route 40, or Chile's Carreterra Austral. All visitors discover a land where nature still dominates the efforts of those who come to visit.
