Something not right?
Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
- free
- no amenities
- full moon at Toro Muerto was spectacular
- there are basically two camping options in Toro Muerto - either at the ranger's station in the village (two level spots in front of it), which has the benefit of having a bathroom, or directly at Toro Muerto. We chose the latter, there is a small shelter that was big enough to fit our van, so we were in the shade during the day and partially guarded from the wind at night
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
Great spot to view the petroglyphs and there are a LOT OF THEM. We paid 7s each. We asked the guard if we could camp…no problem. It was beautiful and peaceful. Absolutely no one around at night.
Report Check-InRestaurant la Rosa nautica by the river majes.Friendly and helpful owner. Quiet at night. Free, but we had a good meal at the restaurant.
Report Check-InVery calm and pretty spot. No ranger to pay something.
Report Check-InAs described before. Absolutely quiet, nice view. We paid 7 Soles pp the next morning.
Report Check-InVery, very quiet place. Nice to spend the night here. You need sone time to explore the site to find some of the over 5000 petroglyphs. Really worth the drive! Also easy doable for big rigs!
Report Check-InThe guard said we are officially not allowed to camp here. But finally he let us stay overnight at the parking / shelter. // no guard around between 6p.m and 9 a.m. //probabely the most impressive engravings are on the FAR NW hill side (huge rock + engravings at -16.224737 -72.502128)
Report Check-InThe carpark is very peaceful. We managed to fit the van in the shelter.
