<map lat="-34.9104701037445" lng="-54.9433833853511" zoom="12" view="0" float="right" /> Maldonado is a city in Uruguay.

It's probably most famous for it's bordering town Punta del Este, which is a crowded tourist resort in summer. For hitchhiking purposes, these two town have been combined in one article, as they form one united municipal area. It's pretty easy to hitchhike inside the city, as well, e.g. along Blv. Artigas from/to Punta del Este to/from Maldonado.
