→‎Used Trails
Public roads with transit traffic were avoided wherever possible. On such '''Primary and Paved Roads (PR)''' you may find some moderate traffic but they are safe to hike. If you do not insist in "connecting footsteps" you may try to hitch-hike on these primary roads. Some drivers will even stop without being asked and offer you a ride as this is part of the back-country culture in this region.

Whereever possible the Greater Patagonian Trail incorporates '''Lake (LK)''' crossings, '''River (RI)''' downstream floats and even paddeling on '''Fjords (FJ)''' for a [[#Packraft|packraft]]. When not carrying such a light-weight inflatable boat or when the weather does not permit paddling then many but not all of these water sections can be bypassed on foot, by ferry or with private boat transfers. The incorporated river downstream floats do not include large rapids but some moderate white-water floats. In most places you can land on a beach before these rapids and either walk around or take them by packraft after spotting and inspecting them.

'''Ferry (FY)''' crossings or transfers by boat are required in several locations along the trail. Some but not all can be paddled by packraft.
