[S2 – Eps. 20] Seeing snow-capped mountains after 4000 kilometers of flat lands..
EDITORIAL SUMMARY
After a long stretch across flat, arid terrain, this episode reaches the first snow-capped mountain views of the ride. A border crossing back into Argentina and a day on dirt roads lead into a new phase of the journey: mountain riding.
About this film
Part of Season 2, “Patagonia to Peru,” the film follows Itchy Boots on a solo motorcycle journey around the world. The ride is aboard a Royal Enfield Himalayan named Dhanno. At 13 minutes and 50 seconds, this episode marks a change in the landscape after the journey from Buenos Aires had covered 4,000 kilometres of flat, arid plains. Its focus is the shift from those open stretches to the mountains at the southern end of the Andes.
The journey
The route crosses a border back into Argentina, followed by a day riding dirt roads. The reward is the first view of snow-capped mountains since the trip began in Buenos Aires. The episode places this arrival in Tierra del Fuego, in the south of the Andes, and presents it as the start of a substantial stretch of mountain riding. The landscape change is the central point of the journey here: from thousands of kilometres of flat, dry plains to the first mountain scenery of the trip.
What to expect
- A solo ride on a Royal Enfield Himalayan.
