It is a your better bet: although when heading South.Although there are often many kilometers in between villages, it is a well travelled road. Ruta  There are also some East-West roads, some of them being dirt, some being pavement. It is easy to get a ride on the paved road but dirt roads, however, are much harder because of the lack of vehicles. The ''national ruta nº 40 which '' goes from San Carlos de Bariloche south, (South) is a road that gets frequently closed off because of the bad weather and is reputed to be hellish to hitch on - fewer cars, unpaved sections and some people have said they have gone days without seeing anyone. Winding, remote mountain roads and bad weather conditions in any season but summer make it less travelled by truckers and therefore is not recommended. [[Gas station|Gas stations]]s are generally your best bet, although roadside hitching is possible.''
