Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
GPS is entrance to several spots where one can tuck into the dunes, approx. 3km off main road to get to them. When clear, great views of the volcano. When we arrived, there wasn't much wind and we thought we tucked in well next to a dune to block any wind but it shifted and was incredibly windy throughout the night.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
Beautiful spot indeed on the volcanic rocks. During the day we had nice views of the vulcano. At night it was freezing but we managed to stay warm with some extra clothing and blankets. Many vicuñas around!
Report Check-InWhat a beautiful free spot. We just parked 500-750m from the main road. Because we were a little bit scared driving much further because of the dips in the road. It was windy but not that cold during the day we arrived. The next morning was super cold. But really worth the view of this incredible vulcano.
Report Check-InNice spot to spend the night. Plenty of space, quiet and peaceful. Arrived in the dark so didn’t go too far. Not much wind but woke up to my car covered in a sheet of ice. No cops.
Report Check-InWe loved this spot, completely in the wilderness, lots of vicunjas, view of the volcano in the morning more clear, no houses no people nothing except wilderness. Choose your spot (easy without 4x4) One of the best spots in ecuador we think.
Report Check-InBeautiful spot! Came here in the evening with thick fog, easy to miss (coming from Chimborazo it is a left turn). Woken up by cops at 6am, the sun comes out from behind Chimborazo, many vicuñas, and just excellent views. Free!
