Other land borders may exist between Estancia San José (Argentina) and Camerón (Chile), but as if hitchhiking isn't hard enough on the main roads of Tierra del Fuego. Kudos if you did hitch another border crossing, and again, please add information here if you did!
=== [[Bolivia ]] ===
Some of you might need to apply for a visa or pay a reciprocity fee when entering Bolivia. It's surprisingly strict to get in. The immigration officers are not very good at making you feel welcome into their country. After filling in a form at the border, [[User:MOAH|Mind of a Hitchhiker]] got shouted at and her form destroyed and tossed by the Bolivian immigration officer because he deemed her handwriting unreadable.
'''''Paso Internacional Salvador Mazza - Yacuiba''''' on the Ruta 34 in Salta province, leading into Tajira department. It's very big. Argentinian customs is 100m from the bridge crossing the border. The town on the Argentinian side is called Profesor Salvador Mazza and the city on the Bolivian side Yacuiba. Let us know if you hitched this border.
=== [[Paraguay ]] ===
Paraguay is a really nice country, but immigration checkpoints are usually very far away from the border in the nearest town of size. This doesn't follow any particular logic, and sometimes one has to hitchhike more than 100km between borders on crappy roads to get the next stamp. This might result in having your exit and entry stamps not done on the same day, which might lead to nasty questions by immigration officials.
