Check-Ins

Be careful! They tried to put a nail under our tire at a traffic light on Av 9. It seems to be exactly the same trick as known from Chile. Flat tire and then they help you with and try to steal from you.

It went like this: a fancy car followed us. At a red light, the passenger got out and placed a nail stuck in a coffee cup lid in front of our right rear tire. The man also looked well dressed and did not arouse suspicion at all.
We got out and picked up the nail, unfortunately forgot to take a photo of the men and the car.

So be careful!! Keep an eye on your tires and if you get a flat tire and are "forced" to get help, be careful!!!

Unfortunately, very sandy and not suitable for 2WD.

It’s very sandy, so we didn’t try with our 2WD van.

Toilets/cold shower clean, pool beautiful, very quiet location, but…
… the camping are is deep sand and you can clearly see that many vehicles got already stuck. The sand is dirty and black from ashes of past campfires and not very pleasant to stay. For us with a 2WD van, there was only one position where to camp.
4500 per person.

Nice spot by the river. No pit toilets or tables or anything. Perhaps we’re not far enough up the river to be at the same spot the other folks described. This spot is also used as a boater’s put-in.

Nestle yourself amongst the rocks just opposite the small Mt Elena. You can hide yourself quite nicely if you're wihh a tent, and you get a great view of the road and plateau to the south.

Very friendly owner- very basic campground where it is hard to find a flat are a despite all the Space available. 5000 for 2 people and a car -

Police here were very welcoming. No hesitation letting me camp. They have toilets, shower, drinking water etc. You might even be able to charge up. Not far from shops.

Fiquei na areia, ao lado dos quiosques. Antes do primeiro quiosque tem uma ducha e uma torneira públicos, pedi wifi para um garçom e usei banheiro deles que fecha as 18h. O ruim é que não tem sombra, mas gostei do lugar.

Super sweet spot. We easily made it here in our F150. Prob not the best for a regular car. Definitely narrow with patches of bushes rubbing against us but nothing major. Gorgeous views and so quiet. Worth the bushwhack as the more accessible sites closer to the road were all full.

Great pretty leveled spot close to the beautiful swimming holes. Stunning landscape, very easy to get to and suitable for all kinds of vehicles.

To get for the road was closed. The sign and said do not enter.

Flat grassy area next to the X-13 between La Junta and Lago Verde. Suitable for all kind of rigs and tents. This is one of the very few spots along this road suitable for overnighting because most is either dense forrest or fenced off private land. Several locals and the Carabinieri passed by in the evening and morning. Very quiet at night. Beautiful views of the Milky Way.

ENI Gas were amazing the second time we visited. They could only put 2kg into our 5kg Chilean gas bottle and were apologetic - such lovely team.

Kind of confusing as to which pump to use. There is a sign at the red that says drinking water, while the blue says dump flush only…and the blue is next to the dump.. I used the red.

You board the boat to Embera village here for the tour. Most of tge folks are with the tours from Panama City

Good place if you need sth on the way south or north. Very clean toilets abd hot shower all free. Security guard 24h. The only problem is that it is loud as trucks come and go all night and the highway is busy all night.

Stayed here on the way down to Panama and on the way back up. Nice, clean, safe and the beach is so relaxing. Many camp/RV spots and also have cabanas available. Wonderful family. Contact NoA at ‪+52 667 102 0617‬ prior to arrival, he speaks English very well. This will be a must come to place any time we are anywhere near this part of Mexico.

Huge pretty level lot. Small but very clean dog park.

free rv dump, potable water and dumpster at public campground

we could fill our US bottle. from 04/2024 on it is 4000 ARS/kg. very quick, 45 minutes. went shopping at la anonima in the meantime.
it is house number 1117, pinkish colour by now.

Nice peaceful flat place to rest. A lot of Lyamas near by. A pity some rubbish around.

We stay a little further towards the river and the sunset is just amazing.It is a small spot but ok to spend a night. Smaller vehicles only will fit here.

Nice quiet site, some Highway noise. The store requires camping vehicles to be parked between them and Krogers.

free dump. thank you maverick by pump 16

Water turned off; day use only right now. I’m guessing they turn it on when they open to overnight.

Its a very beautiful fall, but the access isn’t so good.
You’ll need to walk around 2km to get on the fall, and maybe the gates will be closed.

We spent a very quiet night at Killa Wasi. Victor welcomed us very friendly and showed us everything. Good shower. As mentioned by others, the access road is narrow Nd the entrance gate has a limit in heights. We made it without issues in our Unimog (2.35m wide, 7.35m long and 3.56m high). The only disadvantage for us was, that he only has 110V. Seems we were a bit ignorant (didn’t know that Ecuador is on 110V) and lucky so far that the places we stopped at in Ecuador had 220V.

We’d probably stayed longer but wanted to visit the Thursday market in Guamote. So had to leave.

Great place for a hot shower, very clean with lots of shower cubicles, big spacious changing rooms and the ladies had hairdryers that you could use. Only $2

Very calm place
Restaurant, bathroom, wather, food and drinks available
Close to the place there’s a little fall
Is a nice place to visit but isn’t possible overnight here.
