Text in English & German. The "end of the world" was what 16th-century Spanish conquerors called Patagonia -- a region of breathtaking beauty in the south of South America. Unspoilt wilderness, fascinating mountains, volcanoes and ancient glaciers, and crystal-clear lakes and rivers dominate the landscape. The legend of the region lures many visitors to the mysterious land divided between and by the Cordillera. The endless Patagonian steppe has little in the way of vegetation, while the landscape in the north is dominated by vast forests and lush meadows with grasses and flowers. Reiner Sahm is our guide through this almost unreal region, one of the dream destinations for mountaineers from around the world.
