Description
historic park and free picnic/camping area; very nice view over the river at the Monument of General Artigas; slipway often used by anglers; hot shower by own fired wood oven, many concrete picnic tables and grills; at the last weekend of Sept. 2016 (may be yearly?) the place was full - a big Gaucho Festival was celebrated.
In 2017 they opened a new visitor center with leaflets about Uruguay and with superb toilets during the day.

Report Check-InThis camping was absolutely beautiful, and free! Great views of the river. Campsites on hills, also some down to the riverbanks (although most there seemed occupied by local families who were staying a while). Electricity, tables and grills at sites.
