Camping fechado, mesmo durante o feriado. Esta é uma situação constante no parque, não tem mais campings livres e a maioria dos agrestes e organizados estão fechados, mesmo durante feriados

As it said in another spot, free camping is forbidden now, they have put signs in all free camping.
We just saw one place between this spot and playa frances (don't have coordinates sorry), where there is still a sign of camping autorized only for motor-home for two nights maximum.

great place to stay overnight. stunning views. the best place is 22 (at the lake). at night we were there alone. further up were a lot of people with theirs campers and they had an assado at the fire pits. as it can be quite crowded there be careful that you don't get holes burned in your tent. just stay next to the lake :)

Free entrance to the park because of the low season, very beautiful place to camp next to the lake!

At the moment no entrance fee for the park, free campsite. Very nice place, extraordinary. No facilities, just fireplaces. Clean, right at the lake. We stayed three days. They are in the process to put Asfaldo on the gravel road.

stayed on a rainy September night in our sprinter van. we saw a ranger at the entrace but he said we didn't need to pay due to off season.

we drove down to the boat launch area and camped for a peaceful night. we had our dog with us but no one cared due to low season.

Free. Large, flat area for camper vans with fire pits. Walk down beach or through woods for plenty of fire wood. Close to beach where there are camping spots. Solo again. Very peaceful.

Not as nice as cascade iragoyden. however views from the little jetty are stunning. Busy all day and i am sure crowded in season. No facilities, and very windy away from the treeline. being low season and wet most trials were closed. we had the entire park basicly for ourselves untill the weekend.

It is an official free camping in NP. Plenty of space, numerated places, firepits. Due to lack of toalets expect flying toalet paper in bushes around...

Nice camping as described. Spot 22 is clearly the best, the other lakefront spots have very limited flat ground to set up a tent on. People were boating there, but left soon and I had the place to myself.

Report Check-In

We camped at site 22 on the lakefront.. Not sure if we were meant to as there were signs saying restricted vehicle access, but the balustrade was down, it was the best site, and due to low season, we seemed to be the only people in the park.. if you're able to we definitely recommend this spot - it's nice and private and the lake is gorgeous!

Loved staying here and chatting with local preparing their sailing boats for a long we exploration. The guardaparque was very friendly and advised us to move not to be under the very dodgy tree.

The walk along the coast was closed. I walked to France's campground, very nice walk with lots of trees or branches in the way. Unfortunately lots of paths closed for the season, what a shame.

nice and big spot at the lake, with lots of firepits, no toilets

Nice camp free, couple others around. Nice swim a bit cold. Fire pits around, pretty good for a couple days.

Beautiful campground right on the water. Trees provided some good wind protection. Fire pits and level spots. No bathrooms. There were two other couples camping but plenty of space to spread out. The views were amazing. Bugs/mosquitoes were pretty bad at night. Note: even though this is "free camping" we did have to pay $150arp/person to get into the park.
