Heading north to the United States for a journey across the plains and snow-capped mountains, largely following the spectacular route of the Empire Builder, a legendary train that crosses the Rockies in a magical setting.

Bolivie

Bolivia is a country that flirts with the sky, a country perched high, sometimes at over 6,000 meters above sea level, a country above all where the scenery is breathtaking. Philippe Gougler decided to approach this truly unique country from the bottom, at an altitude of 400 meters, where the vegetation is abundant, in the city of Santa Cruz, the departure station for the country's main cities: La Paz, Sucre, or Cochabamba. In Bolivia, trains are rare and take their time, and the charm of the journey lies in the unique scenery they cross and in the encounters.

Chili : la traversée des Andes

In the Andes, sublime, almost mystical trains run, crossing the mountains and descending to the Pacific.

Philippe Gougler begins his journey through the Andes by Lake Titicaca and a train like no other: a rail bus. The journey continues to the heart of the largest salt desert in the world: the Salar de Uyuni. Then, head to Chile and the Pacific coast aboard one of the freight trains that cross the Andes and travel through unique settings.
