[S2 – Eps. 13] Into the wild! – El Cabo Raso, Argentina
EDITORIAL SUMMARY
This Season 2 ride crosses a stretch of Argentina, travelling from Puerto Pirámides on Peninsula Valdés to El Cabo Raso. Stops at Gaiman and Punta Tombo lead to a remote destination reached by a road the episode singles out as a highlight.
About this film
Part of Itchy Boots’ “Patagonia to Peru” series, the 18-minute episode follows a leg of a wider ride around the world on a Royal Enfield Himalayan named Dhanno. Its itinerary combines visits to places with distinct local character and a final arrival at El Cabo Raso. At Gaiman, the rider pauses for Welsh cakes and visits a settlement established by Welsh people. At Punta Tombo, the focus turns to the thousands of penguins described in the film’s account.
The journey
The ride begins in Puerto Pirámides on Peninsula Valdés and continues towards El Cabo Raso, with stops at Gaiman and Punta Tombo along the way. The destination is presented as a remote place without telephone reception or internet. There, a family had begun rebuilding local ruins 12 years earlier, turning them into a house, guesthouse, camping ground and cabanas. The approach by road is central to the episode’s account of reaching the site, making the final stretch a defining part of the journey.
What to expect
- A motorcycle journey from Peninsula Valdés to El Cabo Raso.
- Welsh cakes and a visit to Gaiman, followed by penguins at Punta Tombo.
- A remote destination and the road leading to its guesthouse, camping ground and cabanas.
