Explore Argentina by Motorcycle

From the Andes and Patagonia to wine regions and vibrant cities, Argentina offers some of the most diverse and dramatic riding on the planet. Whether you’re chasing endless horizons across the Patagonian steppe or carving through mountain passes beneath snow-capped peaks, every day in the saddle brings something extraordinary.

A Country Built for Motorcycle Touring

Argentina stretches nearly 3,500 kilometres from north to south, crossing everything from subtropical jungle to glacial wilderness. For motorcyclists, that translates into an incredible variety of roads and terrain. The legendary Ruta 40 runs the entire length of the country along the spine of the Andes, serving up jaw-dropping mountain scenery and long, sweeping curves through some of the most remote landscapes in South America.

In the south, Patagonia delivers a riding experience like no other. This vast, windswept wilderness is home to turquoise lakes, ancient petrified forests, and towering glaciers. The roads are quiet, the skies are enormous, and the sense of isolation is both humbling and exhilarating. It’s the kind of place that reminds you exactly why you ride.

What to Expect on the Road

Argentina’s roads range from well-maintained tarmac on major routes to gravel and dirt tracks in more remote areas. Fuel stations can be spread far apart in Patagonia, so touring here requires a sense of adventure and proper planning — which is exactly what a guided tour takes care of for you. The weather in the south is changeable and wind is a constant companion, but the reward is scenery that few places on earth can match.

Between riding days, there’s no shortage of things to experience. Argentina is famous for its incredible beef and wine, particularly the Malbec produced in the Mendoza region. The culture is warm and welcoming, and even in the most remote towns you’ll find good food, cold beer, and a genuine curiosity about travellers on two wheels.

Best Time to Ride

The Argentine summer runs from November to March, making it the ideal season for motorcycle touring — especially in Patagonia, where winter conditions make many roads impassable. January and February bring the longest days and warmest temperatures, though the Patagonian wind tends to pick up during these months. December and March often offer a good balance of pleasant weather and quieter roads.
