==GPS File for Trekking==
The KMZ file displayed on the map above is optimized to provide a good overview but does not include waypoints and all the detailed information for hiking.
Therefore the file below should be downloaded and used if you actually plan to hike a section or the entire Greater Patagonian Trail.
[[Media:GreaterPatagonianTrail-20140726.kmz|Greater Patagonian Trail with Waypoints, Options and Alternatives (kmz file, update from 2014-Jul-26)]]
The file is organized in folders and subfolders for a better overview in particular when viewing and organizing the trail on a computer. There is one folder for each section and each section contains a subfolder for waypoints and a subfolder for tracks.
The waypoints are named with the item and a running number.
Common items are: Start, River Crossing, Water, Pass, Camp, Refuge, Bus Stop (Finish) …
A running number is added in brackets to be able to refer in the trail description to specific waypoints.
Example waypoint name: “Start (GPT01-WP001)”
GPT: Greater Patagonian Trail
01: Section 1
WP: Waypoint
001: Running number
==Expected Duration==
