The end of the world – does it exist? Where is the beginning and where is the end on planet Earth? Karl, the traveler in this book, searches for the end of the world at the southern tip of South America. In Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world, he takes part in the Carrera Fin del Mundo race, the race at the end of the world. But he also deals with other aspects of the "end of the world," such as climate change. He observes its effects in particular on the glaciers in the Patagonian Andes. Patagonia is the landscape that Karl explores on his journey from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia, on both the Argentine and Chilean sides. Famous Andean locations such as Bariloche, El Chaltén, and El Calafate are among his stops, but also the World Heritage Site Cueva de las Manos in the middle of the steppe and the former boom town of Punta Arenas on the Strait of Magellan. He does not shy away from the politics of Argentina's President Milei and the history of the genocide of the indigenous people. Ultimately, however, his enthusiasm for the magnificent landscape of Patagonia prevails. 232 pages + 44 pages of images with 114 color photos
