What to do in Carretera Austral North

As the northern portion of the 'Most Scenic Highway in the World', there's no end to the ravishing vistas you'll encounter. The best way to see it all is on a road trip, which passes lush forests, barren steps, deep-blue lakes and glacial Patagonian landscapes. Along the way, there's plenty of activities to get involved with, whether it's braving some of the best rapids on Earth, scenic hiking excursions or riding horseback into a cloistered valley. From Queulat's Hanging Glacier to the ever-changing colours of the Futaleufu River, photogenic is the word.
