The Darién Gap is an approximately 60-mile (100-km) break in the Pan-American Highway, which otherwise runs continuously from Alaska to the southern tip of Argentina. The gap is located in the thickly vegetated marshland and tropical rainforests of the Darién region, which spans the easternmost part of Panama and northwestern Colombia and is the only overland route between Central America and South America.
