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.
On the north side of the road (I know - looks steep right?) is a small flat area behind a tree / large rocks that offers a hidden camping 'perch' for a solo or double tent. You will obviously need to push your bike up the steep grassy hill to access it. I had a great sleep here after flattening the long grass — the road is silent overnight and you will then have excellent access to the glacier the next day!
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
excellent location if visiting the glacier. well hidden and beautiful view. only a kilometer or so to the park entrance. you'll probably be dealing with headwinds for the 50 kilometers from El Calafate. I bought my ticket for the park the next day and hid my panniers in some trees by the ticket center to travel fast and light to the glacier
Report Check-InPerfect location for easy access to the entrance. There are lots of space though if you search around a little, and can easily fit several tents. Good wind protection among the trees. Water is found in a river just a few km before. We tried to do sneaky business and access the park at 6.30. Got stopped by a ranger..
