We want to make sure you're on the trip that's right for you. Every Backroads trip is unique and this one is no exception.
Our hikes through Patagonia's captivating terrain are remote and often do not intersect with roads. Vehicles will get us to and from the trailheads, but the nature of these trails is such that we won't see our vehicles along the route. Ample trail support in the form of water, snacks, and encouragement is provided by your Backroads leaders and local guides.
Also be aware that our biking routes include sections of dirt roads with loose rocks and sand, as well as some more trafficked stretches. Of course, you're always welcome to jump in the shuttle to avoid the busier or rougher sections of the route.
Trips with a small number of guests may be supported by one Backroads Trip Leader and a team of knowledgeable local guides. There will always be at least two people hiking on the trail with you.
