Getting there

Car

If you're traveling by car, start in the central region of Uruguay and head towards the border with Argentina. Use Route 2 or Route 5 to head south to the town of Paysandú. Once in Paysandú, take Route 3 heading west until you reach the town of Guichón. From Guichón, continue on Route 3 until you reach the border crossing at Paso de los Libres. After crossing the border, follow the signs to La costa del Uruguay, located in Paso de los Libres, Corrientes, Argentina. This drive should take approximately 5-6 hours depending on traffic and border crossing times. Be sure to check for any tolls along the way which may cost around 200-300 Uruguayan Pesos.

Public Transportation (Bus)

For those using public transportation, from cities like Montevideo or Salto, purchase a bus ticket to Paysandú at the local bus terminal. Bus companies like COT or Nuñez offer services to Paysandú, with journey times of approximately 7-8 hours. Once you arrive in Paysandú, transfer to a local bus heading to Guichón. After reaching Guichón, take a bus to Paso de los Libres. The total cost for this journey will vary but expect to pay around 600-800 Uruguayan Pesos for the entire trip. Ensure you check the bus schedules in advance, as they may vary on weekends.

Taxi or Rideshare

If you prefer a more direct route after arriving in Paysandú, you can take a taxi or use a rideshare service to take you directly to La costa del Uruguay in Paso de los Libres. This option will be more expensive, with costs potentially exceeding 2000-3000 Uruguayan Pesos depending on the distance and waiting time. Make sure to confirm the fare before starting your trip.
