I’d Never Choose the Highway Over This 🇨🇱 Atacama Coast 🛵🌎 S6Ep29

What was supposed to be a casual not too exciting ride from Copiapó to La Serena turned into one of the best riding days of this journey through South America. Instead of taking Chile’s main highway Ruta 5, Cherry and I followed a smaller coastal road… and it just kept getting better. Desert landscapes, ocean views, hidden beaches, fishing towns, endless curves, steep mountain switchbacks, and almost no traffic anywhere. The smaller roads really are the best! 📍 Route: Copiapó → Huasco → La Serena, Chile 🛵 Bike: KTM 390 Adventure “Cherry” 📆 Date: December 9, 2025 🔥 About this trip: I’m riding my KTM 390 Adventure (nicknamed Cherry) from Colombia all the way to Ushuaia — exploring South America one road at a time. ✨ Don’t forget to subscribe and follow the entire journey to Ushuaia:    / @alyoka.travels   🤝 Support our trip: https://buymeacoffee.com/alyoka.travels/ 📸 Follow us on Instagram:   / alyoka.travels   Chapters: 00:00 Intro 00:24 Leaving Copiapó 02:16 Back in the Atacama Desert 03:22 Hidden coastal road 05:27 Coffee break with ocean views 06:21 Riding next to the beach 07:20 The “secondary secondary” road 08:42 Arriving in Huasco 10:01 Empanada stop 11:11 Endless switchbacks begin 12:24 Why solo travel fits me 13:52 Better than the highway 15:16 Canyon views everywhere 16:21 Last stretch to La Serena #MotoTravelVlog #SouthAmericaByMotorcycle #alyokatravels
