Hardly any of the trails of the GPT was made for hiking or especially prepared for hikinghikers. This distinguishes this trail network from many other long distance trails. The Greater Patagonian Trail is composed out of existing routes that were mainly made by and for local settlers to serve their purposes. This makes the GPT so authentic and diverse but also inconsitent and challanging in parts.
