Check-Ins

dispersed sites located fairly close to the access road. can hear the traffic noise from the highway. has excellent T-Mobile service 5G with five bars. beautiful walking trail access from one of the dispersed sites. The Ridge Trail, which may not be its actual name, is a trail through previously logged forest. not very attractive. no amenities other than a stone fire ring.

Parking PARADISE very nice motorhome area with shower, a bathroom and a dishwasher, all clean by the lake and 10 minutes from downtown Salò, a beautiful town.. Nice place to stay. Quiet enough. Hot shower 1€. Bar and restaurant down at the lake well recommended. Open from 8:00 to midnight, nice people.

Really Nice place, away from crowd. 5 $ pp including entrance for camping, for big rigs on parking. meal for just 5 $ really good. the Best view in the morning

There is a off road way to this place. You can stop wherever on that road. The final place is the river bus we stopped before because of the cactus. Look out for it. Less windy than next to the road and some bushes

A verge directly next to the road. Just big enough for one large vehicle, and levelled. Near the river and in a quiet area of town. Not hidden and close to traffic, so far from ideal but we were out of options. Arrived late night and there were no suitable places around this area. Few vehicles passed but otherwise quiet night.

We just finished horse riding with Antonio. The horses are incredibly well trained. We are pretty inexperienced and we could trot with them on our own.
The landscape is beautiful and the canyon was amazing.
We paid 20,000 pesos per person for 2.5 hours.

No possible to go today because of snow. After 30km there was 50 cm of snow. All people came back. So we didn’t start the road. Maybe for few days like this but before coming here see the weather

Closed today because of snow. You can come until here from Fiambala. Even it is many km, it is a really beautiful road!!

I do like this place at the end of a track down waterhole road , ok in any motor but if wet you will get stuck (2WD) friends got to 100 yards to the end in there camper van but it was raining all day and some of the road is clay... he got very stuck , but 4x4 is fine , lots of space when you get there.

good campground. we had a spot next to the river. off season price is $29 for partial hook up. friendly staff, hot showers

Really neat little campground with 3 free no service sites and 11 electrical hookup sites. You'll see the three free sites to your left before entering the paid electrical site portion of the campground. (The blue dot on one of my photos is the free site I stayed at one night.)

Lots of tent camping if you walk from the RV sites down to the lake and to your left. Right now there is quite a bit of free firewood left by each of the sites (see photos).

Awoke to a tornado warning, heavy wind, and pelting rain, but I guess it goes with the territory. Still a great campground!

Beautiful place to spend a couple of days. The entry looks a bit sketchy, but we managed to get in and out with our 6.6m 3.6t Fiat Ducato.
There is a real sand beach where you can sunbathe if it’s sunny and the water in the river is Cristal clear.

This was such a remote spot with service. There was a major wildlife fire back in August so there are quite a few burned trees.

We were woken up by our dog growling around 11:30. In the morning we saw what looks like a bear print on our van (see pic). So be super mindful if you stay since it is right near a creek.

Very lovely place with a great view! Friendly ranger explained us a lot about the parc. No problem for him, that we want to sleep here. Another perfect spot!

Pressure outside very low. A friendly local opend the entrance door for us and showed us the taps inside. This water is not filtered, but with a higher pressure. Toilets and shower inside (we didn’t use).

Posada del Rio (Malalcahuello): A very romantic and stylish hotel. We spent four nights here to recover from the stresses and strains of traveling in motorhome. The price per night is 108‘000 to 130’000 pesos for two persons, excellent breakfast included. But the hotel is worth every Peso. Claudia and Pedro are wonderful hosts, that provide you all help and information for a pleasant stay. During the day we very much enjoyed the familiarity, the beautiful garden and terrace, and in the evening the cosy lounge. Needless to say that everything was super clean and professionally maintained.

Only small trouts available at 15 SOL the kilo. To buy yogurt (6 SOL per liter), cheese (18,5 / 20 SOL per kilo) and butter (10 SOL 1/4 kilo) you need to go 2km further in the village of Pachacayo. Here there is a store dedicated to the dairy product.

We slept about 2km further at the confluence of 2 rivers. It is really very beautiful and very quiet! The water in the river is cool but it is pleasant to swim there on a sunny day. Only downside, the sun disappears behind the hill at 5pm and appears in the morning around 7am. No Claro signal.

On this nice dirt road (good condition) from Laguna Huacra to PE-3N, there are lots of vicuñas. If you are lucky you will be also able to see flamingos in the lakes.

Parked right past the garden center and there was plenty of space and a few other car dwellers. I will say a nearby business has a very loud no trespassing alarm and it goes off throughout the night.

Nice area close to the freeway, but being largely on the other side of some small hills minimizes the road noise. There were about a dozen rigs of various types and sizes on this Monday night in April, and room for more, although it was starting to feel crowded. The dirt/gravel road and parking areas are mildly potholed but navigable with a 2wd. Verizon signal is marginal: 1-2 bars that boost to 3-4 with a cell booster, but the underlying internet capacity seemed to degrade over the course of the evening, possibly with a bunch of other campers getting online. We had sufficient bandwidth for streaming at 7pm but had slowed to a crawl by 9pm.

Nice place. But our night was terrible! The wind starts at 2am!!!!!!!!!

Très calme et sécuritaire. Grand stationnement.

MARK AS CLOSED, turned up no camping anymore!!!

Now has rooms and is a proper hostel. WiFi, bucket showers in room, flush toilet US$15. Check out my Ometepe video on Patreon to see the place, link in my profile. Great views of Conception.

Parking lot at Walmart. No sign of "no overnight parking". I asked security if I was allowed to stay overnight, he said yes and told me they were patrolling all night. Felt safe.

In Bajo Alto there is nowhere to park but established park places.
This one is a family house and they provide their space in front the house for parking.
They let us spend the night, use electricity, wifi, shower, toilet, wash our clothes by hand. Very lovely people, we shared breakfast together.
5 dollars per night.
Ask for Sonnia Gomez.

The beach is not worth it. It's quite dirty. But it's the only one between Quayaquil and Perú borders we know of.

Nice place to camp. Very developed. There is a store, toilets some art gallery and some weird piramide museum. The road here is all cobblestone. Not to steep easily doable with any car or motorbike or scooter. The whatsapp below works for inquiries.

In the evening the local Shaman (hippie) gives some tour of his pyramid. it's very weird but funny.

well marked spots & some no camping you need too stay inside the blue marked post now Read the sighs & you'll be ok 16 days only

Nice quiet spot at end of gem field road. Lots of spots to choose from in the area. Cool rocks and very few people in April. Very good overnight.
