Los Andes, Chile
Ruta 60
N/A
Very modern and efficient border crossing of the Chilean Police. Building has two levels; the trucks drive into the lower level and cars and bikes are processed on the second level. Everything is indoors as at this altitude it can get very cold and is almost always windy. Staff was fluent in English.

Border crossing, traffic might move slowly, depend on the season, sometimes can take few hours. Expect search through car and luggage, do not keep any fresh food unless you are prepared to declare it. The same apply if you travel by coach from Argentina to Chile. Great views on the way up and down the border.
good border, but always leave fruits , you cant take with you fruits ok! always get information before, what can you take to chile about food, good lucky!
Lines moved kind of slowly and you had to move into a tiny office in a back room and give your passports/ID and then have the car checked by dog/people. It was quite the process to get back into Chile from Argentina, but very easy to leave.
Do not exchange Pesos Argentinos to Chilean Pesos there, you will get not enough paid. Better to exchange Euros of USD.
Well-organized customs and immigration checkpoint, a bit over-obsessed with fruit. Please declare all fruit / food and be ready to lose any fresh food, mate etc.
Quick and good service not like Argentina side here they had 1 person for over 300 people
