Check-Ins

We were her for the second time in two years and we love this site. Well maintained and large grounds. The Termas are nice, especially in the early morning when you it is still very quiet and peacefull. We paid 400 Pesos for 2 persons and a small camper.The amenietes are worn out but they keep them clean.

We managed this road on 2 enduro bikes in the dry. We managed to get thru the mud bog (with some route finding). I would not recommend this in the wet or with a vehicle.

But, shortly after the mud bog we came across a private property sign - turns out the last 5 km are now owned by a mining company. While we managed to ride into the property, the highway side had a gate with a security guard. The boss was not inpressed that we rode through this property.

I wouldnt recommend this route as a result (despite it being beautiful).

wild road, military check point for guns or drugs, guns with full military gear, very young men, take your name and vehicle age, checks your compartments, stunning desert scenery, haven't passed anyone...need 4x4 or SUV in good shape

large boulders, top of the pass, halfway to San Filipe, a few pull out spots for camping, some spray painted rocks w it's people's names., recommend travelling this road ONLY in the day,NEVER at night due to road deteriorating. Exciting drive though!

more than halfway down the mountain travelling west, google maps says 13km to left turn to the #3 , there is a clearing in valley on the right(south side of road) w small 4 m cliffs...protected...lots of 10 km/hr wash board roads. best roadside stop on entire westward travelling to SanFilipe

Go off the road and drive on the tracks through the forest ! Stop where ever you feel comfortable! No noise only BUSH LIFE

Very friendly place, with shelter for tents, electricity (need an extension), good wifi, hot water. The owners are the best in this place, they invited me to drink chimarrão, I used water to wash my motorcycle and paid to señora Anitta to wash my gear. Very pleasant place and people who like to talking with you. Señor Luiz is planing to build more shelters for the season.

Fantastic People , Fantastic Service. Good English. My wife became ill, Dr Jorge and his assistant Sandra attended straight away . Took us to a good local hospital and remained with us for the rest of the day. Very thorough and very proffesional. I cannot recommend them enough. They have checked on my wifes progress every day since and have visited us on many occasions to assess her progress. Just brilliant

Their clinic has now moved, see entry. but their service is unchanged

Long Point Landing is open again as is the rest of the Croatan National Forest after Hurricane Florence.

Nice spot with lots of flat space. almost no noise from the highway. When you pull off the highway there is now a sign which says 'Permit required', I stayed anyway without disturbance

There was a forest fire and now we are not hidden from the road. We do not stay and find another place near from this.

Great original food. On the third floor.

No overnight signs street parking in Venice near beach.

This is a public park just in the middle pf town. The coordinates are for the entrance of an small path leading to a small area for one ring where is safe and protected from wind. We spent one night here without any problems as all formal campgrounds were closed.

Encontramos o local com muitos carros estacionados e pudemos passar a noite tranquila.

Beautiful place under trees and near the river... It was clean when we came there... You can swim and fish (salmons)!! Perfect for a night or more :)

Nice views, not crowded this time of year, but very windy. Built a cool fire pit here. Downtown close by for groceries.

quiet parking at night but in the morning there is a lot of movement

Very touristy and overpriced at least in the season. View from the airport is much better, 6 AM no cashier present.

This place was awesome, Hans one of the host and makes the BEST BREAD! We planned on 1 day, but ended up staying 4 days. Just really good vibe and energy of the overlanders here. Hans has the best tips on where to go and places to see in Ecuador. Hot showers, good WiFi, and best of all good German beer...a must place to stay.

hand carwash. in and out.
our van was very dirty after 1 year of travelling. Marcos Arratia and his team did a very good job
we paid 20000.
recommended

This place is a Land Rover garden of heaven. They are really nice skilled mechanics specialized in old Land Rover cars. We spent the night there talking about landies and travels around a few drinks with the owner and his crew.

good campground for the fee. tight turns but doable for our rig. 26 ft trailer, f250. quiet, beautiful, did deep hole hike to see 150 alligators(no joke). only 30 permits a day...see ranger station early. bathhouse older but water warm!

6-7 miles of gravel road.
About 14 sites, tents RV’s.
Pit toilets, bear secure trash

We were able to make it to the refugio in our Ford F-250 - definitely do not attempt without 4WD. Cold and quiet evening. The glacier hike is definitely worth doing in the morning with (hopefully) clear views.

Wonderful caring knowledgeable vet. Speaks English. Variety of better dog food for sale

Travelers Land is the home and homestay of the amazing Mohsen Qomi, the founder of the Fb-group Overland in Iran. He can help you with just about anything and he has fantastic stories about overlanding and overlanders. Don’t miss visiting his homestay or workshop when your around Bojnurd :).

We spent a couple of days at Mohsen’ and had a great time and Mohsen gave us a wonderful introduction into Iran.

There’s room for a car in his garden and motorbikes or cycles can park safely in the garden as well. You can either sleep outside in your car or in one of his guestrooms. You can use the kitchen and hang out in the livingroom. Prices : sleeping in your car: 4 usd pp and sleeping in the guestroom 8 usd pp, all including a nice simple breakfast.

It’s best to let him now when you arrive, since he might be at his shop. His number +98 915 585 1517 - call, SMS, Telegram or Whatsapp.

Be sure to leave something for his overland museum ;).

Walled and gated dirt parking lot with very helpful family running it living on the premises. It is dusty but also can be used for short term parking. We used it in late May of 2018 for short term parking while living in it, then left our Mercedes Sprinter there for 6 months. It has potable city water and they can wash your vehicle. Water pressure for potable water is low during day. Rough toilet with no seat. It’s called Garaje Alfredo (Phone: +51 984 135 789) and has 24 hour access. HUGE open Mercado (every day) four blocks away. We paid five Soles per day (short and long term) for a Mercedes Sprinter van. When we returned in December of 2018, the van was quite dusty but virtually as we had left it. The local police (3 blocks away) were very responsive in doing the inspection for acquiring the vehicle suspension permit and SUNAT located near the Plaza De Armas was exceptionally helpful. Family speaks Spanish only. I left them with the complete instructions for acquiring the permit to leave the vehicle.
