From the soutern shore of the Lago General Carrera start further promising trails and minor roads that can be combined to an attractive continious trail all the way to the glacier Viedma near the famous Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre massive. This possible hiking route connects:
1. Chile Chico
2. Reserva Nacional Lago Jeinemeni
3. Parque Patagonia
4. Reserva Nacional Lago Cochrane (Tamango)
5. Cochrane
6. "Ruta de los Pioneros"
7. Villa O'Higgins
8. Candelario Mancilla
9. Lago del Desierto
10. Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre Trail
11. El Chalten
12. Glaciar Viedma

If you know a better or simply an interesting alternative trail, that fits well into this Greater Patagonian Trail you are invited to be become co-author by sending your proposal with a GPS File to me. I will review it and incorporate it in the master file. This applies also to helpful new waypoints.
The trail should be worthwhile hiking. It should consist mainly of horse trails or minor dirt road with no or insignificant traffic. Walking i.e. long distances on the Careterra Austral seams not tempting to me. If I take the Careterra Austral, than I rather do it by bicycle.
The route should be passable without a machete, technical climbing or superman skills. Cross country through an open landscape is great, but it is not wanted to fight tree by tree through dense tempered rainforest.
It does not matter at all if the trail is on the Argentine side or the Chilean side as long as it does not depend on clandestine border crossings. If you get catched in particular by the Chilean carabineros without a valid stamp you may get expelled and this makes not a nice finish of such a trip.
