NOW WE HAVE TWO PROJECTS :
THE DESSERT'S CALLING (North of Chile)
| You will start with the South-Pacific-Cross-Team on your KTM Enduros to a fascinating and unforgetable adventure. In 15 days you will master with us together 1,370 miles. The tour leads mainly on gravel roads. The daily stages are so well timed, that pilots with less experience can anyway absolutely enjoy the fascination and colorful and magnificent landscape of Chile. At the end of every day, we will cosy accommodation and a good meal.
The project begins at the airport in Santiago. We will meet the journey participants with our team bus. During our tour we will see the interesting landscape of the North of Chile with its innumerable cactus, dry river beds, huge wine plantations and colorfully painted houses. Several times we wind us through narrow curves at an altitude of up to 9,842 ft. In the cordillere we will cross some rivers and drive around washouts which are gone with the rain and the river.
Subsequently, we will pass the petrified forest of Pichasca, see the second biggest observatory of the world and drive through Vicuna, which is the native village of Gabriela Mistral (holder of Award of Chilenian Literature and Nobel Award). One entire day we will enjoy the charme of La Serena, the second oldest city of Chile and its wonderful beach which is connected with Coquimbo. The next day we will rush through sand dunes heading for a lonely sand beach. The touch of adventure in our thinkings, we will head for the North passing copper mines, gold mines and salt lakes until Antofagasta. From there we continue to the salt lake of Atacama (741,330 acres) to San Pedro de Atacama, a small oasis in the desert. In this desert village there is a famous museum which was founded by Padre Lepege.
We will enjoy our last evening with a bath in the hot springs of El Tatio and a wonderful sunset. Before you have to say good-bye to Chile and the great time we spent together, we finish our program with a final common dinner.
The organization of the raids to the north or the south of Chile is strictly controlled by people who has experience in the field. Because of that, we can guarantee to the tourist that they will live and exclusive opportunity to go over and to know the beautiful landscapes that our country can offer.
If you prefer the solitary northern desert or our extensive beaches, the beautifulness of our cordillera de los Andes or the perfect and beautiful nature that the south of Chile offers to you while you ride a KTM Sportmotorcycles, the preference is yours, we we make reality

FIRE AND ICE (South of Chile)
From the amazing Andes up to the very end of the world.
The Carretera Austral is the road that leads to the southest territories of Chile. The world longest street, the Panamericana, ends where the fiords surrender to the ice fields crowned by hills and glaciers. A picture of untamed wildness.
The Passo Roballo connects to the infinity of the Pampa Argentina, a whole new world where the Gauchos keep watch over cattle and cows all along the prairie. But the Fauna is much more than this: condors (one of Chile's symbol), pumas, guanacos, emus, armadillos... and pinguins! And when the road starts to become very long, the spectacle of the National Park Torres del Paine or Perito Moreno please us with pictures that we will never forget. And every mile was worth it.
Punta Arenas is the end of the trip. With a little bit of luck some whales and seals will be on sight, as well as the wellknown Magallanes pinguins. Indeed, it is really not possible to drive further away. Tierra del Fuego in front of your eyes, maybe you will try to figure out what saw Ferdinand Magellan so many years ago, as he saled through this cold water finding a way to one of the most beautiful countries of the world.
