Right after border control, if you go early in the morning as the crossing opens, there will be lots of trucks crossing. They all go through San Pedro so you can get it in one ride, and if you wait right after the control they'll drive slow, some of them will stop to prepare the ride and you can ask. Good spot to go in the morning.

Just a few cars and trucks driving, most of them going to the mines (still far from the border, you're not interested as there's nothing around). Also there's no bus everyday, just some days, so It's easy to get stuck. Luckily got some nice local farmers but it took all day to get this 1:30h ride. At midday there's trucks stopping there to have lunch so you can ask.

Not a lot of cars driving there but the ones doing it were nice with me and answered. But be careful onwards cause there's nowhere to sleep in between Purmamarca and Jama except for Susques

Not a lot of cars driving here unless you start early in the morning or it's weekend. Also check the weather, I got involved in a sandstorm when I got dropped hahah and there will be less cars if bad weather.

No cars stopping, they were driving fast and most of them I guess were entering to the city. Nowhere clean to put your luggage too, which can dissuade cars. Not good spot. Had to take a bus after long wait and realizing that.

Not a great spot, just a shade on the road to stay, still only took half an hour to get lifted.

Good spot, cars have where to stop as they slow down for the curve. Most of them are driving further than the city, unlike if asking at the station.

don't even try here if going east, the cars go way too fast, I assume taking a city bus to any other outer road is better, or even a bus towards Crespo or your desired direction (5 usd in 2026)

ASS PLACE TO HITCHHIKE (towards Santa Fe), I assume the YPF earlier in the road is better, because here 90% of the people were just taking the colectora (whatever the translation is for that curvy road lol) to go back to Córdoba

hitchhike here if you want to go towards Santa Fe, going through San Francisco is not advised (by the policemen nearby at least) because Frontera, the town on the Santa Fe province side, is a dangerous place. also, vehicles go slow and people actually look at you in the eyes.

Late not much traffic going north but eventually got picked up by a chilean truck driver. Big open space but sooo windy

Не смотря на то, что трафика мало, уехал довольно быстро в сторону Mar Del Plata, фуры практически не едут по этой дороге, потому уезжать только на легковой машине,

Очень мало трафика в сторону Bahia Blanca, стопил вечером, простоял два часа в ожидании машины, возможно, дело во времени, если бы стоял там рано утром, вероятно, уехал бы быстрее, чем вечером

useful if you don't want to walk to the cloverleaf (rulo), though it's slow

Get a train ( la boca) from Plaza Constitucíon to Ezeiza (900pesos) and change to Cañuelas ( take about 1h15), -definitly the fastest way from the city- and walk to the entrance of the road 3. Got a truck to Bahia Blanca in less than 5 minutes!

We were two Backpacker going to direction SanJuan and Salta. The intersection is great spot and wide place to stop for cars. We got ride aroud 35 km to Lavalle. ( We realized there is a bus is going here Number 300 ,who want to get a bit far from citycan consider this option) There is a Police check point in This town which cars stop too. We might say hitchiking is tough in Argentina and takes long times, drivers most of time does not seems friendly.

BRAZIL/ARGENTINA border: very easy to hitchhike here. We did it in both directions and didn't have to wait more than 10 minutes to get a ride to Puerto Iguazu or Foz do Iguacu.

se pueden acercar tomando un metro hacia vespucio norte , despues tomar de ahi un bus b05 que se va por el mall buenaventura y pedir de bajar a la parada mas cercana al peaje, despues tienen que caminar como unos 2 km hacia el peaje. con tarjeta bit metro mas bus salen como 700 pesos. ;) si quieren ir por argentina es mas facil bajar a los andes y ponerse cerca la aduana de camionero y seguir por argentina..

Good place, most traffic to argentina passes by here. End of season time is longer as traffic is reduced. The day you see the pinguins you can sleep at the camp, and go in the morning hitchhike.

Nao pode atravessar a fronteira a p, por isso, peguei carona em frente a imigracao brasileira at a imigracao argentina. depois, saindo da imigracao argentina (na rota indo pra Buenos Aires) pode pegar um coletivo at o proximo posto (opcao mais segura) ou tentar carona ali mesmo, como fiz.

At the entrance of the highway, towards Los Andes and Argentina, we waited for about an hour before we got picked up. A la entrada de la autopista, direccin Los Andes y Argentina, esperamos una hora.

All directions, either south to Santiago, north to La Serena or east towards Mendoza in Argentina. Emergency lane at the entrance to the motorway. You can get nearby by micros (mini buses) from Valparaiso or Via del Mar. Ask for the ones going to Quilpue as they all pass near Jumbo Hipermarket in Via. Get off near Puente Lusitania, cross the bridge and turn east. Another option is metro to the station Chorillos (electronic card needed, no single tickets).

CEASA: There's a train (CPTM - ESMERALDA LINE) that takes you here easily. You have to take the YELLOW LINE of the METRO and then do the combination. Get down in CEASA station. (In every station you can ask for a map of lines). Here is not the best option for those who want a fast ride. Take your time, be amazed with this huge (HUGE!!) space full of truckers, fruits, greens, fish, and lots of other foods and talk with EVERYONE. When I say everyone, i mean EVERYONE (not only truckers). Say them where you want to go, ask if they know where people who go that way, usually park their vehicles or in which tent inside CEASA they have their lunch. People who works here knows lots of people, and if they like you, chances are HIGHER for you to find a trucker going to RIO, CURITIBA, PORTO ALEGRE, CHILE, PARAGUAY, ARGENTINA, MANAUS, PORTO VELHO. EVERYWHERE! Truckers here can go everywhere!!! When I tryed to hitch a ride from here, I was looking for Rio de Janeiro, I couldn't find anyone going there in that day (only in the next one) but I received offers of truckers who were going to LOTS of other places.

Toma el metro linea 2 hasta Vespucio Norte, luego bus B18 que te deja justo en la entrada a la autopista. Desde alla ya sigues hacia Los Andes y Argentina. Suerte!

There is a petrol station situated, where you can find rides to Chile as well as to the north of Argentina and Bolivia.

Border station Dorotea between Argentina and Chile - straightforward treatment and a good occasion to hitch a ride into Argentina, at least to Rio Turbio where you can hitch on.
