Bike Packing the Carretera Austral on a Brompton


Watch this travel movie about a Brompton Folding bike coping with the legendary rough roads of the Carretera Austral in Patagonia. Starting from the Chilean town of Coyhaique I headed south and after 575 kilometres crossed the border with Argentina to end my tour in the hiking mecca of El Chalten.

  1. A very nice video of your bicycle ride in Patagonia!

    You write in your blog that Bronte was recalled from an early retirement due to delays in receiving a new bicycle. I guess your new bicycle is another Brompton?

    Great that you could finish your ride before the corona virus problem became serious.

    I also did a bicycle trip recently. Originally I wanted to ride only in Sicily and maybe Malta. I had to change plans because the corona virus situation became worse than I had expected, but I was lucky enough that I could continue travelling by bicycle until the end of my vacation:
