Generally good campsites with hot water (sometimes for limited hours), clean
toilets. More expensive than Argentina, around $2000-3000 per person (pesos,
not US!). Bush camping is easy (at least in the South). |

Very quick and painless border formalities between Argentina and Chile
(either direction), even with a vehicle. |
Overall rating |
Seems more businesslike than Argentina, though still friendly. Very
beautiful, cold in the mountains! |
