Argentina is a vast country and the population density in some of the most beautiful areas is very low. Although the infrastucture is good and there are many service stations equally spread out through the country, they will not be found at every turn. We strongly recommend that when you are travelling long distances you regularly fill up the tank when possible.
Some simple precaution before embarking on an adventure goes a long way!
