Nice spot. I stayed one night beside the river. Some fishermen and locals visitors but they went out at night.

We stopped here too and it's lovely. Good view but we approached the hut and an alarm started and didn't stop: we were 10 metres away. We moved down the beach and the direction of the wind changed to east and we couldn't set the tent up! We moved along the road to a deserted building and camped between a couplee at San Gregorio.

It’s Walmart. Asked inside and manager said, “I don’t know, I see RVs out there so I guess it’s ok”. Small area with trees between Walmart and Sams Club was nice.

Maybe the first ATM when you arrive from Macará - Ecuador.
There are two banks. Both have ATM I think but we were able to withdraw money on Bank de la Nación. It accepted MasterCard (and many other logos)
Maybe there was also a possibility to withdraw in Suyo but we didn’t check.

As being said, really nice spot with an awesome view over the city.
Street might be to narrow and steep for many vehicles though.

Passed without problems in a 4Runner, but 4x4 is definitely necessary. As original post stated there are a few creek crossings and the road does get very steep at one point, but it’s only a couple hundred meters before it levels out again. It’s mostly mud / clay, so could be tougher in rainy season.

We are just down from the boat ramp. Being that it is winter, we are the only ones here. We chose this place to protect us from the wind

Argentina -> Bolivia with Chilean plated car. It is possible to enter Bolivia with just the Authorization - even if Your padrón is not yet available! (directly to Bolivia from Chile it's impossible). Easy process, took 20 mins at most.

great little park in town, the owners try hard to help people & the place is clean and tidy. 2 showers/bathrooms with hot water. Full hook up. 250. Ignore the no vehicle signs when driving. there.
DO NOT use the BBVA cash machines nearby, they are renowned for swallowing cards as I found out and had to fight to get them to return my card. Later met about 6 more people who had the same problem.

I asked to camp there and I was shown around the place, but was never asked to pay anything. Not sure if this is because I am a solo woman. When they saw me eating standing up, they brought me a chair, but I do have chairs, I just rather eat standing as I spend too much time sitting while driving. This just goes to show how nice they are! Since I did not pay, I did not use any of their facilities. Beautiful sunset on the beach!

Wow an actual "Freedom Camp" where you are welcome to stay with Self contained, NOT sc, or a tent. 6 vehicles max 3 nights/ month. Good birding on the lake. Bonus: down by the beach behind the toilet is a outside shower! The campground wanted $8/pp for a shower.

Friday night 5 pm onwards the bar is open! Great protected grassy spots. No drinking water. Honesty box on south side of the building. $10 total, no per person crap. Beautiful clean toilet. We didn't stay because too early in the day. Neat spot!

Closed Monday and Tuesday. Joeb came over and wasn't thrilled about anyone being there. It's Monday. He welcomed us to park but not open shower, toilet, restaurant. Hey, don't blame him only us. Another camper came in and left. Big rain, no fun. No power sites. We went to the Freedom camp another 5 k up the road.

Beautiful walk of 7.4 km. The section to the Karu Lookout is grade moderate, the following sections are grade hard. The Karu Lookout can be accessed all day, the parts thereafter are closed at 11:00 am and also if the forecasted day temperature is 36 degrees or more.

12 dollars per night and person in 6-bed room. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Clean pool. Bath with hot water. The breakfast included in the price is good. The negative point is that it is not possible to lock the cabinets of the four. There are small lockers with padlock at the reception. My room was air-conditioned. The garage allows for high car entrance.

12 dólares por noite e pessoa em quarto de 6 camas. Ambiante bem agradável com o staff muito solícito. Piscina é limpa. Banho com a água quente. O café da manhã incluído no preço é bom. O ponto negativo é que não é possível trancar com cadeado os armários do quatro. Existem uns pequenos armários com cadeado na recepção. O meu quarto tinha ar condicionado. A garagem permite a entrada de carro alto.

Excellent well organized Land Rover shop. I didn't have work done here but talked to Klaus and would consider his shop for work. Land Rover work done to a high standard and experience with overlanding.

Wonderful place ! Grass, near the river, trees, fishes... And clean!!
The only noise you hear comes from the cars crossing the bridge down the river.
Not suitable for big rigs but we entered with a camper 3m high and were able to turn.

we stayed the night before we went to Mafia Island and left the car here for three nights. Do not expect a campground or backpackers or something. It is just a house with a small yard. The gate is always open. There is a small roof where you can park your car underneath, should work up to a height of 2.5m.
we paid TSh20.000 for camping for two persons and TSh10.000 for each night we stored the car here.

We parked our truck next to the caravanserai and were woken up by the police in the middle of the night. They were friendly and we could stay, but maybe parking out of sight behind the building would have resulted in an undisturbed night. ;)
it is also possible to park in front of the Mehregan guesthouse in town. The friendly reception lady told us police will not bother you there.

OK for one night (when you cannot see all of the garbage spread all over).

We wanted a nice afternoon and decided not to stay.
