→Trail Types
The second choice were unused or rarely travelled dirt roads. Such roads typically provide access to isolated settlements or villages without significant transit traffic. Some of these roads are not maintained anymore and not accessible by vehicle but passable for hikers.
In some areas the Greater Patagonian Trail passes crosses through open terrain without a visible trail. These cross-country routes do not pass very dense vegetation and can be hiked without cutting a trail with a machete through temperate rainforest. Some of these cross-country parts lead through steep and exposed terrain but do not require technical climbing.
Public roads with transit traffic were avoided wherever possible. Paved roads were the last choice of all.
