Check-Ins

Good general car store. I got brake fluid, they've got lots of other fluids and parts.

very big hotel but almost empty, for tgat reason no AC in rooms. paid 300 for a double. clean decent room, secure parking.
could not see that swimming pool.
about 1km from the police station where you can do foreign registration

Done in about 1hr. They will photocopy your passport and visa. Fee 535SP and sticker in the passport.

Very nice people and guesthouse in Soleb archaeological site. Didnt stay tgere for tge night as arrived at midnight and couldnt wake anybody up. :). So camped outside and in the morning were greeted by the owner, jolly elderly man and his son who speeks very good english. Facilities looked nice and clean from the outside.
They can help arrange some petrol from local gold mine if you need. The next station is in Dongola but you also might find fuel in shops in villages along the Nile (offroad)

Old and pretty run-down campsite with a meadow for campers and almost rotten camping cabins for rent. Russian charm ;-) But it's the only location for campers near St. Petersburg in September 2018.
Registration is in the Hotel Lobby.

8 dollar or 50 renmimbi per person lokals pay 100 rupie
100m before there is a checkpost where you get a registration card for gilgit baltistan. tell them how long and where you plan to go, otherwhise you cannot pass the checkpoints eg in skardu or deodai

cannot choose Pakistan in country selection.

Campground near to the lake with nice view. with motorbike you can drive on the place. price something between 500 and 800 Rupies per tent. you can bargain. Toilet is "basic". Way to Lake and campground from the main street is not for beginners.
pay on arrival, otherwise he will charge extra 100 per person for toilet!

We really enjoyed this place. Great common area with nice kitchen to use. Bathrooms and showers were clean, plenty of hot water. Wifi works good, and the camping area is nice and private. They have beer and food for sale if you like. The road noise didn’t bother us at all. 5 pp/pn

We stopped in to get a room and were told that they don’t open till 4:30pm so we moved on. Maybe it was just that day though. Looked like a nice place.

Very pretty with lake view. Large gravel circle with grassy perimeter. No activity during our one night tent stay. We could see an older fire circle so felt a campfire was allowed. Big variety of birds. There is a constant industrial noise in the background but ok.

Rest Area with Welcome Center (Oregon)
Toilets and picnic tables. Busy road.

Nice and quiet spot, there are a lot of places close to the creek. You don't need high clearance, we did it with our 23' MH. There were some other vehicles spending night here.

As described - great place to spend the night of you're driving through. Not much in the surrounding area, although we didn't attempt to check out any of the hiking from the area either.

One large open field area and two smaller gravel parking areas (all have pit toilets). It was definitely warm and the flies were a hit of a hassle, but nothing out of the ordinary. No cell service.

Amazing. Pay 10,000 pesos per adult and saw so many Andes Cock-of-the-Rock. As cool to us as the Quetzal. Walk down from city from 4-6 pm or early early morning. They have a few posters around the city but afternoon hours were incorrect. It’s private property so you must go during their hours.

everything is right. Sometimes there is a Fisher at the River.
don't miss the geothermic wellnes 35km away ;)

Good first stop after the ferry. Huge opening at the end of the road.
Thank you for sharing. Some waterfront spots. No amenities.
We saw seals and gannets.
There were more mosquitoes than we were expecting for September.

This is the place you can get very close to reptiles. It’s not a touristy thing, just a family who are using their land as an animal rescue station. Get there! See yourself, and support them!! I can just recommend it!

A small bakery where you can buy different sorts of dough stuffed with meat or vegetables (cabbage, pumpkin, potatoes)

Just near the rest area parking, a more quiet and hidden place where we spent one night during our road to Kansas City

Gravel space on Keane Lake. Place for any kinds of vehicles. No facilities- but 1,5km north is an rest area with Pit-toilets and bins.
it's close to the street, but quiet at night because less traffic.

very nice place with spots direct on the lake. very quiet and you can see in lot of bird's. Pit-toilets are not in the best condition, but usable.

the guard at the bridge told us it is forbidden to overnight here.

Pretty historic Hacienda with a lot of nice areas. You can walk, relax, play on the grass or use the big pool.
The way from the main road is very narrow! We were lucky, nobody want to go up when we drove down. I add some pictures of the road and the entry, too. We are 7,30 x 3,70 x 2,50 m and fitted. Not sure of a longer truck will take the curves. They have a Restaurant but it is not always open, you have to ask.

In a vacant lot on Ottawa street.
Easy place

Big parking lot at the end of a short paved rad signposted with „Public Viewpoint“. The viewpoint is on a dam for the retention of sediments of the Toutle River. There were some visitors during the day, nobody in the evening and night. A message on the info table informed about a recent bear activity.

While maps.me and google have problems showing the right way, there is a proper carretera going from Oruro directly to Sucre. Its about 300km of the best paved roads we have seen in South America so far and goes through beautiful hilly countryside.

EDIT: only the last 40km before Ravelo are on/off paved/ good gravel. But they are working hard to make it all paved.

So do not pay attention to your navigation system for once but just follow your nose south and after 100km you will find signs directing you towards Sucre.

Lots of beautiful wild camping sides along the road!

Very good mechanic if you have any electrical problems. He fixed our starter motor very fast and didn't wanted anything for it. We gave him a good tip. He has many parts and is very friendly. You can sleep at the guarded Gasstaion if you need to

The road from the main road to the entrance of the canyon is brand new asphalt. We paid 1480 tenge for 2 persons and 2 motorbikes. We wild camped next to the canyon for free without any problem. You can pitch your tent wherever you want and enjoy the view.

As described. The entrance is right after the creek bridge on the right side. The road is a bit tough, but no real problem for vans and small RVs. It might be tricky to find an even spot, but we managed without elevators. It is right by the river and is gorgeous. It also has fire pits. There is no cell coverage.

Really nice drive out to this spot... we were hunting for Denali views and there are several spots on the way here that were great (with views) but alas taken by hunters... we landed here by a creek as it was getting late... there is a “road closed” sign early on once you hit dirt but there is a good amount of traffic out here... I believe it is closed in winter...
