Mr France spent 18 days cycling where he encountered snakes, tarantulas, rheas, llamas and armadillos before taking a few rest days so he could join his climbing partner to take on the Aconcagua summit, which they completed in 13 days.
To mark his third leg, Mr France covered 1,730 miles, starting at Laguna del Carbon – a salt lake in Argentina which sits 105 metres (344ft) below sea level – and finishing at the summit of Aconcagua, the highest mountain in South America, which took 34 days to complete.
Oli France, 34, from Wigan in Lancashire, marked the third leg of his mammoth challenge named the Ultimate Seven Project with the aim of cycling across the lowest geographical point before climbing the highest point on seven continents.
A British adventurer has said he felt he was “cycling into treacle” as he faced extreme winds riding across South America and low oxygen levels summitting the highest mountain on the continent.
The expedition leader said he spent eight to 13 hours cycling solo and averaging 95 miles a day where he battled “49mph winds” and “temperatures up to 43 degrees” across the Patagonia desert.
