Understanding the Trail
The GPT is an informal route network that consists mostly of trails, roads and cross country routes that were not made for hiking nor especially prepared for hikers. Most of the trails were made by the local population to serve solely their purposes, i.e. to drive animals to summer pastures, to get to remote settlements and outposts or to extract wood from the forest. The routes that the GPT is composed of include:
- * well-maintained horse trails that a regularly used by the local cowboys (arrieros Arrieros or gauchosGauchos)- * poorly maintained trails that are washed out, trenched and blocked by fallen logs- * minor roads and basic car tracks that are occasionally used by an all-terrain vehicle- * trail-less cross country routes in barren open terrain- * a few short stretches of bush bashing- * and where no more adventurous route was found also public roads with moderate transit traffic
All this makes the GPT to a discovery network.
