poudredescampette.com | Only small trouts available at 15 SOL the kilo. To buy yogurt (6 SOL per liter), cheese (18,5 / 20 SOL per kilo) and butter (10 SOL 1/4 kilo) you need to go 2km further in the village of Pachacayo. Here there is a store dedicated to the dairy product. |

poudredescampette.com | We slept about 2km further at the confluence of 2 rivers. It is really very beautiful and very quiet! The water in the river is cool but it is pleasant to swim there on a sunny day. Only downside, the sun disappears behind the hill at 5pm and appears in the morning around 7am. No Claro signal. |

poudredescampette.com | On this nice dirt road (good condition) from Laguna Huacra to PE-3N, there are lots of vicuñas. If you are lucky you will be also able to see flamingos in the lakes. |

metropolitanstew74 | Parked right past the garden center and there was plenty of space and a few other car dwellers. I will say a nearby business has a very loud no trespassing alarm and it goes off throughout the night. |

Fish and Kitty | Nice area close to the freeway, but being largely on the other side of some small hills minimizes the road noise. There were about a dozen rigs of various types and sizes on this Monday night in April, and room for more, although it was starting to feel crowded. The dirt/gravel road and parking areas are mildly potholed but navigable with a 2wd. Verizon signal is marginal: 1-2 bars that boost to 3-4 with a cell booster, but the underlying internet capacity seemed to degrade over the course of the evening, possibly with a bunch of other campers getting online. We had sufficient bandwidth for streaming at 7pm but had slowed to a crawl by 9pm. |

MJ | Parking lot at Walmart. No sign of "no overnight parking". I asked security if I was allowed to stay overnight, he said yes and told me they were patrolling all night. Felt safe. |

Masar Alternativo | In Bajo Alto there is nowhere to park but established park places.
The beach is not worth it. It's quite dirty. But it's the only one between Quayaquil and Perú borders we know of. |

Ropy | Nice place to camp. Very developed. There is a store, toilets some art gallery and some weird piramide museum. The road here is all cobblestone. Not to steep easily doable with any car or motorbike or scooter. The whatsapp below works for inquiries. In the evening the local Shaman (hippie) gives some tour of his pyramid. it's very weird but funny. |

gerberding | Nice quiet spot at end of gem field road. Lots of spots to choose from in the area. Cool rocks and very few people in April. Very good overnight. |

ontwowheels | Arrived as they were closing but let me sleep in a covered area and opened up the bathroom for the night for me. There is a new fuel station being built about 1km down the road and you can get a simple meal there, restaurant and fuel station will be fully open in about 3 months. Yes trucks are a bit noisy but it's a nice location in the hills. lots of walking trails, could easily spend a couple of nights here.

sparklingdiving49 | We stayed the night, such a cute little town so quiet. We read the reviews and felt it was best to call the Sheriff's office of Amana. We spoke with the nicest Sheriff and there was no issues with us staying the night, we got there around 6pm left at 8am. Bathrooms were clean and open 24/7. Definitely advise you to call the Sheriff to let them know you are there, we believe there is a local that calls when people stay over night. They are just responding to calls and thats why they knock and check on those who park there for the night. |

bueno_va | We spent one night here. Quiet place, many people doing sports. After 10pm the square is empty. We parked on C5 NE street, where there is a water tap, we loaded our tank without problems. the guard told us it was drinkable. We feel safe. At night there is a cool breeze, you sleep very well!

preferrednovel76 | Threatened to call police. this place is sincerely beautiful. We got fantastic photos and it was super cool to stay except... we got there in the evening before sunset. Man named Curtis was selling Jewelry at the stand and we chatted with him, looked at his Jewelry he was selling. He asked if we were staying and that it was $20. Husband asked if there would be a deal if we bought from him. He seemed pleasant and said yes. We paid 40$ for a necklace, bracelet and to stay the night. presumably 20 for necklace, 10 for bracelet and 10 to stay. Then at 2am, we got a knock. Man who looked identical to Curtis said it cost $10 to stay there. We said we already paid, he said no we needed to pay him. His name is Henson and it's not Curtis's land. He was pretty sharp from the get go and maybe we should have just paid but we were startled being woken in the middle of the night. He said if we didn't pay he'd call the cops. So we left instead and found an easy spot to park even at night 20 minutes down the road.

twotonetacostravels.com | location amazing, very walkable to town and basically at the beach. vibe, kinda weird.....it's mostly a snowbird community with a couple open spots for people traveling thru. people are nice but not super friendly. didn't use the showers because they looked a little sketchy, but the guy says they get really hot. $400pesos a night for 2 people and camper on a truck |

instagram.com/vanlife_steps | It is a really beautiful place. We did the hike (70000 Colombian Pesos per person) and yes again it’s a beautiful piece of nature but we think it’s way too expensive for what it is. A 2-hour hike with a guide who even we speak Spanish she almost didn’t explain anything. If we asked some things than she didn’t always knew the answer. Felt like she didn’t was well informed about the place. Breakfast was good (15000) but lunch (30000) way ordered from another place and too expensive. |

invisibledeath47 | Area um pouco pequena para parar o carro. O nosso carro por ser um microônibus foi bem complicado, já que os flanelinhas ficaram em cima por pegar 3 vagas, disseram q por ser uma segunda feira poderíamos ficar somente até à manhã seguinte. O acesso por ter chovido, também foi complicado, muita lama e ruas bem estreitas. Não dormimos no local por causa dos flanelinhas. Para não arrumar confusão. Praia muito bonita. |

puppypower57 | Beautiful place! made reservations on line, which added an extra $4 to book a $10 site. Well worth it tho. Wanted to stay 3 nights, so had to book a different site for 2 more. I'm up in Pegasus campground, among the humongous rocks. #15 is a large drive thru spot. Each spot comes with a picnic table, fire ring n trash barrel. Someone even left their wood for me. Much too windy today, so I'm leaving it for the next camper. Clean vault toilets scattered around. I found potable water by bthrm #3. Filled a couple jugs. Showers are at the visitor center, with flush toilets. Women's had 2, 1 was a large handicapped. Good hot water, but poor pressure. They're open 24hrs (showers). They're a few electrical sites, plus fcfs, but I'd reserved anyway. |
