Check-Ins

Really beautiful rv park with lot of amenities. Make sure you sign up for the players card on the day of arrival to get your free night — I made mine the day before and they did not honor the promo

Was parked in the back of the lot along the side of the walmart. Maintenance guys rolled through with leaf blowers shouting no camping.

Sympathique petit camping directement sur le fleuve. Site de A à H aux abords du fleuve. Superbe vue.

Unfortunately, the space marked here can no longer be used because the city has set up a parking ban there. Instead, there are two areas with parking spaces along the boulevard.

One is near the restaurant "Het Strandhuys".. There are 6 parking spaces, but they are very, very, very narrow. We stood next to an alcove and were just able to get out.

The second at the snack bar "La Playa" has 5 parking spaces. These are much wider, which makes standing here much more comfortable.

Both areas are located in such a way that only a small road and a bike path have to be overcome to get to the beach.

The Mont Rigaud ski hill offers 32 vanlife spots during they mountain bike season (May to end of October). Price is cheap, they give access to a shared fire pit, drinking water and toilets. The mountain offers hiking, mountain biking and rock climbing, as well as an obstacle course.

This is the booking office for the ferry that runs to Bukoba 3 times a week (Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday). There are 3 classes. First class gives you a 2-person bedroom (45.000 pp), second class a 4-person bedroom (30.000 pp), third class you stay on the deck or in the bar (16.000). Reporting time is 19:30pm, departing time 21pm. Normally arrives in Bukoba around 6-6:30am. There is a restaurant and bar on board, quite lively with Tanzanian music and alcohol flowing freely. I stayed in first class, which was on the first floor. Bunk bed, neat, clean sheets and a functioning plug and small desk. Recommended to buy first and second class tickets a view days in advance since they tend to sell out. We entered with 2 bicycles which they weighed before boarding, total costs for the bikes was 16.000. Possible to enter with a car as well, they told me for a land cruiser it is around 150.000 but depends on the weight. All in all good experience!

now it cost 100 per van and 10 per person! crazy price! you couldn't sleep here if arrive after 5pm. we went to bistro da Mata instead and enjoy the same view with a drink & food !

We stayed here for 6 nights in slightly different spots each night.
NOTE: On 26th May there was a shootout just 1 block south of here at 5pm.
Several lively local residents approached us & warned us that the block immediately to the south was very unsafe.
There were 2 police patrol cars parked nearby 24/7 to deter trouble.
We found the people here very nice and saw no incidents ourselves but decided to move on in case we pushed our luck.
We suggest some of the nearby streets a block or two north might be a little safer.

Small samosa place! They have vegan (papa), veggie, chicken, beef and chocolate samosas. Very nice owner

very nice location, it is always possible to sleep here quiet, only a few young people playing football until about 10am. there is water and barbecue

emplacement très sympa, il est toujours possible de dormir ici calme, seulement quelques jeunes qui jouent au football jusqu'à 10h environ. il y as de l'eau et des barbecues

possibility of pitching the tent in the parking lot. the swimming pools are at 500pp (23/05/22).

possibilité de planter la tente sur le parking. les piscines sont a 500pp ( 23/05/22).

nice place for the night, near hwy but not much traffic, quiet enough

Propane fill up from 8am-3:30pm 7 days a week.

Fuel Station, regular & diesel. Probably only open at daytime. No prepay at the pump itself, only at the store. Fill up here, no fuel station to Gingolx

Really cool place! 4 bath tubs that can all be adjusted and filled using soft balls, or one has an actual plug. Cows freely roaming around and there is a fun pond where frogs and cute little goldfish swim and croak. I was alone here and it was so quiet. Check out the images for the google maps route!

close to amenities. I used the Taco Bell washrooms in the morning. had a great sleep. nice to wake up to the surfers

Very professional - they checked how much gas we have left in our CADAC bottle and filled it afterwards. One of the workers payed for us and we gave him the amount in cash, as we do not have MobileMoney. 1kg was 1480 Francs👍🏻

complejo de camping...baños..duchas...parrillas..lugar muy lindo para acampar

This is an informal place with no designated sites, no picnic tables, and no fire rings. It's basically just wide open flat land in the forest. This Forest Service campground is on maps and on the Deschutes National Forest website, but it doesn't have the appearance of a campground. There is no sign and there are no toilets here. Heads-up that this is in an OHV area so don't expect peace and quiet here.

great spot, definitely consider staying here if you need to stop overnight in this area.

Followed track further up.
Ends in a scenic bay. Excellent views.

Keine Dump Station zu sehen. Im Husky Market sagen sie man muss vorher tanken und die Dump Station kostet 5,25 CND. Aber wo genau sie ist, kann keiner sagen. Wir sind weitergefahren.

Stellplatz mit unbeschreiblicher Aussicht auf die Wapta Falls und die Berge im Hintergrund.
2 Stellplätze für größere Camper. Picknicktisch (nicht mehr der neueste) und Feuerring am Platz, sogar Feuerholz. Pit Toilet ist sauber und gepflegt, mitten im Wald gegenüber den Stellplätzen.
Achtung Gravel Road und kleine Brücken sind nichts für riesige Camper! Wir waren mit einem Truck Camper (4x4) unterwegs. Das ging einigermaßen gut.

That's an awesome spot for a night. Very quiet, beautiful view, enough space for two vans.

Conventional Camping Municipal, a bit of run down. No toilets, no showers, no services.
Lots of space and tranquility and birds and greenery and freedom and no one else around. So what?

We stayed here for one night, together with another car. A lot of place, no problem at all. Beautiful view on the Yukon. Some of the mentioned houses are really old and rotten. Fun to explore. But two buildings look if there are still or again (?!) in use. Probably locals, so please respect their work.

Pour y accéder : se garer sur un petit parking en terre sur la droite : l'espace est juste de l'autre côté de la route. Nous avons dormis en tente un jeudi soir. Nous avons choisi de nous installer plus en contre-bas, près du lac : le terrain n'est pas plat ! Mais ça été pour une nuit. Des Mexicains ont mis la musique assez forte sur la rive d'en face mais ils ont coupés assez tôt (22h30 environ).

To get there: park on a small dirt parking lot on the right: the space is just across the road. We slept in a tent on a Thursday night. We chose to set up further down, near the lake : the ground is not flat ! But it was fine for one night. Some Mexicans played loud music on the opposite shore, but they cut it off early enough (10:30 pm or so).

Para llegar: aparcar en un pequeño aparcamiento de tierra a la derecha: el espacio está justo al otro lado de la carretera. Dormimos en una tienda de campaña un jueves por la noche. Elegimos instalarnos más abajo, cerca del lago: ¡el terreno no es plano! Pero estaba bien para una noche. Unos mexicanos habían puesto la música bastante alta en la orilla de enfrente, pero la cortaron bastante pronto (a las 22:30 o así).

we stayed 5 nights here and loved it. superb location right on a long, white sand beach with safe and easy swimming. fantastic ablutions with powerful hot showers, grassy pitches and a clean, well maintained swimming pool. it should be noted that we were the only campers for 2 nights and just 1 other overlanding truck for the other 3 nights so we felt very spoilt but I still think this would be a fabulous campsite even I'd it is busier.

We stayed here for two nights and because both „regular“ campsites were booked for the first night, we had a look at the „rustic campsite“. What can I say? A dreamy place. We were so in love that we stayed both nights there. Shady area, big braai place, bucket shower and a (different) donkey system for hot water. Modern toilet system that is not for everybody. Wide open spaces in front of you and a small hill in your bag. The only thing you hear are the birds. We payed 180 NAD pppn. If you love to be lonely in a spectacular surrounding, this is campsite is yours.

Lovely camping running this cute place.

Amazing breakfast.
