Check-Ins

Excelente lugar para hacer base durante la visita a Bariloche. Pasé un total de 7 noches sin ningún problema, siempre habían al menos otros 5 motorhomes, y eso que es temporada baja. muy linda vista del lago. El único servicio que hay es para tirar residuos. Hay dos zonas, la del estacionamiento sobre el lago (más movimiento de coches) y la otra unos metros más arriba debajo de los árboles (más tranquila), donde me quedé yo, pero por lo visto se puede en ambas. A tener en cuenta que el viento se siente y mucho. Algunas tardes deje el motorhome solo mientras iba al centro y no tuve problemas, se sentía seguro.

Really nice park. Has bathrooms and water for jugs. Also has pickle ball courts. There is a spigot by the restrooms

Road D2566, crossing Mapungubwe NP. But no gate so no entrance fees. Shortcut to go or come back to Pontdrift (border Botswana/SA).
Free safari, we saw 50 elephants, 1 lion, zebras, impalas...
Duable in 2x4 but can be muddy in wet season.
No wildcamp because it is between private properties and NP. But can be 50 minutes of driving in the wild.
Enjoy ;-)

Nos multaron por estacionar acá dos horas. No está permitido y al parecer tampoco es seguro.

We got finned for parking here. And it is not safe. Avoid this place.

Police told us it is not allowed to stay here with motorhome, so we had to love. Best place to sleep inside rio: Lagoa da Freitas.

At first they wanted to charge us 200 reales for one night, then they changed the ir mind and said we were not allowed to stay.

Al principio intentaron cobrarnos 200 reales por estacionar en la calle, luego vinieron los militares y nos dijeron que estaba prohibido dormir en Motorhome. Así que nos fuimos para un punto muy bueno: Lagoa da Freitas

Camping closed on that day. We went to the other camping

Nice place we were the only ones. 120lei for 4. Good restaurant.

Large parking lot in front of buildings that appear unused.

Dedicated dump station for RVs. Pretty far drive and you must have access to the Arsenal.

Very poorly designed especially for big rigs. Did some significant damage to my Class A this week. Poorly placed curbs create an extremely tight entry with high likelihood of bottoming out and if you make it past that then there is a substantial dip for both tires that is meant to contain any spilled sewage but caused damage to the underside of my class A. Bent the generator exhaust pipe pretty good and forced one of my compartment doors up bending the hinges and ripped off the arm.

Quiet, stayed one night and wasn't bothered. Came at sunset and left early. Bathroom beyond the gate was open. One other van stayed the night as well. Keep it clean/quiet so they don't prohibit overnight in this area bc it's a great spot.

I stayed in the reserved loop (#3) and Verizon cell coverage was fine. Not excellent but not bad. The closer you get to the hills, the worse the reception is. You can have some trees by your campsite or cell coverage, but not both.

Def do the walk up to Faux Falls if they're. running! it's a real waterfall, but it was made by diverting a stream higher in the mountains to fill Ken's lake. It's only a mile from the furthest campsites and not a difficult walk.

There's a tour that is included in the entrance fee of the park. It will take you to the first stop of the other tours and just before the entrance of the canyon. It has a duration of one hour and at least gives you an impression of the landscape. Good enough for us.

The long trecking tour by food will cost you 42000$. There are also bycicle tours but I am not sure if they would be enjoyable. The street to the canyon is quite long and has deep sand at the end.

We came for a quick view and stayed for the shower. Not too hot, I agree, but well worth it. Restaurant was not open on Wednesday and Thursday, but showers are operated by the rangers. On the back side of the bathrooms there are a few big sinks with hot water. Great for washing clothes.

Small wooden cabin by the road. Not super clean but I spent the night there, helpful to escape wind with a tent.

WOW! On s’attendait à rien mais c’est endroit est fabuleux. Dormir parmi les cactus géants avec un coucher de soleil très beau et un ciel étoilé magnifique.

On se sentait seul au monde. Il y a plusieurs spots sur le chemin assez distancer de chacun

On a vu un coyote à la tombée du jour passer près de la van donc attention à votre chien 😀

Clean and well equipped. We camped here with a tent and two motorcycles allowed on our pitch.

Full of animal tracks. Go a little further if you don’t want to hear the road. Don’t forget to listen to the orchestra of birds in the morning!

Victoria y Álvaro son muy amables. En particular, Álvaro está muy interesado en viajar por tierra, por lo que nos ayuda mucho. Tanto el baño como la ducha están limpios. Hay un restaurante para que puedas almorzar. Poder caminar hasta las aguas termales es una gran ventaja. Muy recomendable.

Stayed here for 1 night. As it was sunday evening, there were some locals bbq‘ing at the river but left after sunset so we had the place to ourself. In the morning a few atv tour groups came along but it was already past 8am, so totally fine.
There is a toilet and running water.
Nice place but big bugs and insects

We really liked this place , there’s a lot of spots to choose from and it’s not crowded. I felt really immersed into nature. The views are nice. The one thing we didn’t like about it is the grass- my dog if he stepped in it his paws were covered in burs so I’d watch out for that if you bring your dog. If they stay on the main paths/roads they’ll be fine. 1-2 bars Verizon 5G for me but it changes depending on where you park.

Small parking lot kind of out in the middle of nowhere. there's a really nice hike you could take and I recommend it around this time of year because there's beautiful flowers down in the valley. there's a porta potty and decent enough Verizon signal.

Wonderfull park and campground. We stayed in a semi-developed site, no hookups, but nice covered table/bench area. Wild donkeys 🫏 walk around, so funny 😁 .
We mountainbiked a couple of beatifull trails. We'll worth it.

First KOA location. Super nice, we'll staffed, clean and convenient.

Clean bathrooms, quiet, plenty of parking.

Nice flat parking lot, park as far away from the store as you can, or behind it. Decent cell reception, and mostly quiet. Smells like cow manure

We camped here on a sunday afternoon. Lots of locals until dawn. At night a couple showed up for 2 hours. They did not bother us. There is some trash and some sand flies. It is good spot for a night.

As described. Few trucks today. They told us we could park in a shaded place between trees. Nice staff.

Two Clean dump stations with drinking water fill next to the campsite. It was $10, paid at the entrance, since I was not staying there night.

it is possible to park in the parking of the hotel, a place close and safe
