Check-Ins

south end between two wooden posts is a spigot open year-round. two other spigots around the visitors center.

Formal campsite with water spigots around

rampart is still closed for the season but the entrance has a big wide open space. 5-6 vehicles here. pretty quiet, toilets were gross but usable. not bad for a night if passing thru. lots more vehicles in the AM so easy to blend in as a hiker

Restaurant in a tranquil setting. Plates are for 2 persons for about 70 BRL (fish or carne de sol), I asked and they made a basic plate for 1 person with rice, beans, chicken for 20 BRL.
You can take a swim in the river, the entry is 15 BRL.

Description by K-Wayversl'Afrique is very good
just some more infos:
- you can pay all fees with credit card
- driver: ask the immigration guys for the gate pass (you need 2 stamps on it)
- if you have comesa, then tell that the guy at counter 4 directly :-)
- they didn't check our car, we just have to write some dates (name, numberplate etc.) in a book

The dump station is currently closed. They said will be reopening approx middle to end of May 2024

purified water fountain in the courtyard of the library. free fast wifi too.

Good bike shop, different part available, Igor is so good mechanic !

Nice little Hotel in the dead center of Lubango. The rooms are cleane, working shower, fresh bedsheets, ac, including breakfast which offers a nice selection. Small green garden in the middle, guard over the night and secure parking spots. 16000kz for single, 18000 for double.

Wonderful view on the Laguna Chacchura. Very quiet. Weak Claro connexion.

Dirt road from Mpigi is rutted so give yourself enough time.

Ferry says they take 12 vehicles and 300 passengers. The one we took had 12 cars/trucks, 1 utility trike, our big GSA, about 10 small motos, and about 300 ppl and it was packed!

If motorcycle, pull up to motorcycle line on the right (maybe ask if you can load ahead of the other bikes).

Go to pavilion to the right by the barrier and register your vehicle and passenger details. They mark your hand with a black marker.

On arrival at Entebbe side it's chaos. Very steep ramp down into a huge puddle (3 m x 3 m x 20 cm deep). It's a gauntlet with vehicles about to board lined up along the right of a narrow and rough dirt track with stalls on either side. Repeated jams/gridlock at junctions. Probably took us 20 minutes from disembarkation to escape from port area.

It's free.

Verry basic hotel,
No electricity and bucket water

It’s good stop if you cycle and can’t go any further

Great campsite at a reasonable price for this country. Power and water right at sites. We paid 59 eu for two nights inc taxes. They also rent bikes for 12.50. Wifi reached site and was pretty fast.

Beautiful spot ! Several roads lead off from the main road and connect together. Perched on a cliff opposite gorgeous rock walls.

A lovely camping spot! Beautiful scenery. Right on the lake. Trails for hiking and biking. Lots of spots to park. Picnic tables, bbqs and fire pits. Tent camping and car camping is allowed here. Bathrooms are clean and stocked. Very quiet and peaceful. Very few people are here currently. There is a boat launch/marina so there will be people using that to launch boats. Truck noise from that is all I heard other than birds. Fishing and water sports allowed on the lake. Quite a few bugs at night, but to be expected in Texas around the water. Saw a huge pack of deer, probably the most I’ve seen together at one time. I parked next to the trailhead which is the flat ground, but parking is allowed everywhere not marked as “no parking.” Google maps might take you through a neighborhood, but if it does, exit and make the next left. You should see a sign marked “Area 5” or something of the like. Can’t remember exactly.

Best part, it’s free!

Laundry service. We paid 4000 pesos in a box. Good service.
Works Monday to Friday: 9:00 - 13:00h, 17:00 - 21:00. Saturday: 9:00 - 13:00h

I spent the night here. I requested to Municipalidad and they opened the main gate to access with my bicycle. Claro 4G. Very calm place.

In main square you can find a specialty coffee shop.

Parking space next to the beach dunes.
We’ve asked at the tourist center of Montalivet and got permission to stay for the night.
Beautiful spot! There are some more further north…

overnight stay for a few dollars available. nice place for fishing, camping and walking around. water spigot all around the park. portable toilets too.

Bon camping 7 dollars par personne par nuit avec douche chaude, électricité, restaurant…
Machine à laver pour 3 dollars par machine .

Slept here two quiet nights. Construction early in the am and late in the evening. Very quiet at night. I slept very good at this location. Grassy spot to walk dog. Near pier.

Really excellent food, service and atmosphere! Newly opened by Japanese family. The quality of the food and sushi especially was outstanding, we’ve been to quite a few sushi places and this is one of the best!

The entrance is hidden in a back alley and access with a car can be challenging, but there should be space for 1-3 cars…

Nice free water. Strong flow. Short distance up path.

Very kind people when we asked permission to stay. We are at the far end of the parking lot by the berm.

Hubert Le Grand was full, so tried here. Clean, well maintained, comfortable mattress and pillows for 8k with fan and en suite. Has rare trifecta of good lighting, mirror above the sink and a clothes stand to hang gear. Ate at the restaurant too, very reasonable prices, tasty and great portion size. One of the staff Sabine, speaks English. Plenty of room in gated parking for motos/4x4.

inside the small tienda, the owner call the special lady for Western Union (if she's not here, no Western Union). We didn't understand if there is a limit, we could withdraw 300.000pesos.

opening hours (horarios) :
Monday - Saturday:
Lunes - Sábado :
9-13h
17-20h30

Expensive and we did not have any hot water in the showers, even after we were told there will be hot water in the morning. The bathrooms are old but cleaned regularly.Only flat spots near the toilets.

used dump station after paying entrance fee to go on mtb ride.

Site #68 Full hookup. $22 before discount (Veteran). Shower was a single stall. Very quaint and clean. Used laundry. Great price on laundry: $1.50 wash, $1.50 to dry. The machines are beand new and worked well. All payment is by honor system by putting cash or check in envelope after self registering. The manager was friendly and kind.

there is a tap outside the station, we asked if we could you it and there was no problem, this tap is used by the community.
