Check-Ins

As described, great flat paved parking lot before you go into the State/National Park, beautiful view at the glacier river,

Stopped but didn't end up staying as we needed Wi-Fi to make some calls back home and they didn't have any. It was a huge spot... if you eat $10 worth of food or beer you can stay for free but the restaurant was really pricey. Beer at the cervezaria was really good though.

Stayed here for one night. Huge spot with tons of space for bigger rigs too. Super friendly as well. Unique spot in the big city, would recommend it.

Apparently no 21,000 RWF rooms available so we were offered a larger option at 38,000 for two adults B&B.
Room simple and clean although not the most comfy bed I’ve slept in, and the mosquito net had holes.
Breakfast good and nice hot showers.

There are other guesthouses that look nice in Butare, so with hindsight I think we agreed to this room too quickly. It’s expensive for what it is and we probably could have got cheaper elsewhere.

Now posted with no camping signs at multiple spots in parking area.

As described. You can also fish the lake if you have a canoe.

Diesel available here. 6000 Rial per liter.

Arrived late afternoon. Very remote, but sheltered from the high winds. We were here during rainy season. Very cold at night for a roof top tent but we huddled tight together. Take your winter blankets or dress in many layers. In the morning the crater lake was stunning. The clouds moved in 30nins after we arrived but the morning views from Irazu were worth the cold night.

We drove in 10 hours from Marble Community Campsite to Epupa Falls. We took the south route from Otjitanda - Okangwati because we heard a lot of bad stories about the road. This part took us 2:45 minutes over sandy and light gravel routes.

About the campsite it feels like we are in paradise. Beautiful campspot just a few meters from the river under a lot of palmtrees. No electricity, water and braaifacilities on campspot.

Abulution blocks are basic but clean. The restaurant area and bar area is very nice and cosy. The wifi is very bad.
We would stay 3 nights but we left on the second day because i had to work / need wifi.

If you are going to Ruakana (further to The east side), then you can drive the D road along the river.
The coverment made the road more accecible. Still the road is corregated but good. You can drive it with a normal car now. You can drive 20-60 km per hour. The worth part is the last to Ruakana.

Save travels and enjoy the beautiful view!

un dentiste super et efficace suite à une urgence dentaire.
dent enlever et très bon suivi du dentiste. si besoin n hésitez pas

Really cool place, and they accept cyclotravellers. So you can camp here or they can lend you a room full of beds

I supossed that is free but was 50soles for one room. A cyclotraveller deception. We look for another option cheaper

For those who want to do the Salkantay Trek individually without an agency/ group, here you get the collectivo to Mollepata, the starting point of the trail. 12 soles per person. They will ask for 20, then 15 but the locals pay 12; just tell them about the local price. They depart when they are full.

Authentic Siberian restaurant serving tasty home cooking.

ideal for cyclists :
We stayed 2 nights. The place is calm. In the evening the camels pass by and come to eat the leaves of trees. We asked for water at roadside restaurants.
there is sand.

no water in the rivers around the mini gobi. We took some water in this cistern. Be careful, it's not sure she's always full.
The temple is very cute

There are now signs prohibiting camping..................................................

nice campground right on water...................

pagamos 50 q por dos noches. Tiene ducha y baños. Lugar seguro y tranquilo.
We paid 50 q for two nights. It has a shower and bathrooms. Safe and quiet place.

we stayed here 14 days. Frederic and his family are wonderful hosts, very helpful and can give lots of info about Bolivia. Very nice place with hot showers, quiet and good resto & breakfast. They can arrange a taxi to centro of Tarija (30 bol.).

drove to the end of the road and found a nice spot right before a private drive. road was a bit bumpy but nothing that would inhibit anyone from getting up it.

We arrived in the evening, stayed two nights and checked out in the morning after the second night. We negotiate and they charged us MXN 200. Currently price is MXN 150/night. Internet ok when we stayed there.

Don't stay here!! I just paid 30b for a private with a queen size bed but I had cockroaches on the walls and a living maggot!!!!! in my bed! Disgusting!

A good place to spend a night away from eyesight for free. Potable water available on the small service city building. Tap on outside. a ball diamond tucked away. Stay clear from the old folks home and prying eyes :)

Nice place to spend the day or have lunch/dinner. Would not park here overnight. Signs for no overnight camping present (and enforced). Close to everything in town! Library just across the street for FREE WiFi.

Amazing pit stop place along Route 138. Stop for lunch, happy hour, dinner or to soak up the sun and dip in the river. No overnight camping (enforced).

Amazing view from this road stop. Picnic tables, garbages, porto potty available. NO overnights here. Right along the road, to easily detected. Beach below, though inaccessible from this location.
If you are adventurous, someone pitched a tent down there tonight and are having a lovely fire!

nice Place on the beach... safe place and friendly People

you can see review here, that is why we will come that is right it was awesome!

It's still value. You have to look on the right hand side when going south, first we missed the bank. No ATM fee.
