Something not right?

Description

Just off the main road and a great place to stay if you don't fancy going into Pasto. Large car park for car camping and plenty of grassy areas for tent camping. We tent camped just on the right of the large white building in a small garden surrounded by bushes to keep out of he wind. Gates are locked at night and 2 security gaurds were there all night. Toilets open 24hrs. Restaurant there for snacks and drinks. Great view of the Volcano. 10,000 per person per night.

They let is park on the grassy area on the right after the soccer field. It is busy on weekends but after 6pm you have the place to yourself. Best place in this area we found so far, where you don't have to camp in the tiny backyard of someone's finca. Lot of leveled space and quite at night. Only negative the toilets are far away (200m). 30.000 COP for two persons and a pickup camper.

Had to wait for some shipment to Pasto and decided to stay here. Parked on the soccer field on the left, nice and flat. Some road noise at night but not too bad, easy drive to town for shopping and restaurants. Staff is super friendly. Be aware that the small uphill out of the soccer field can be challenging after rain.

Estivemos aqui mas não dormimos nele, preferimos um posto Mobil à 1km de distância. é um lugar para passar o dia passeando pelo parque. está ao lado do vulcão.

Un sitio recomendado, por persona $10.000 no hay infraestructura de camping, se usa el parqueadero, baños a unos 100 mts ducha al aire libre, vista al Galeras. No hay donde comprar alimentos. Llevar lo necesario es indispensable. Pasto capital a solo 8 km. Tienen tres perros y está vigilado las 24 horas.

Still a very cool place to stay and 10.000pP per night. You can do a few short loops and not much going on during the week, but can get crazy busy on the weekend or during public holidays. Public toilets are a bit run down, but ok. Good 4G Claro reception

Arrived after dark after a slow, heavy Sunday traffic, but ok drive from Popayan.
Gate closed, went back up the hill a short distance, fuel depot on the right full of huge white fuel trucks, loads of parking. I parked snug at the side of the pretty little cafe with washroom, had breakfast in the morning.
Gia d was happy.

Same as the other comments, 15K per van for the night, we only had cold shower. Super safe, they close the gate at night. The site is being renovated so there's workers until 17h and from 7h in the morning, but they're super nice and weren't noisy

Arrived at 19:30, the gates were closed but unlocked, pushed them and the guard at the parking lot was happy to suggest a spot, charged 15000

Report Check-In

At 3.75 metres we managed to squeeze in through the entrance gate. Arriving at 14.30hrs on a Sunday we were also lucky to park up.
After we arrived the car park steadily filled and by 16.30hrs they were queuing outside.
By 18.30hrs the crowds had gone and we settled down for a peaceful night.
15000 cops to sleep over. No restaurant but simple food and drinks available. No alcohol so bring your own.

As described and the price is the same. Some construction at the entry but big vehicles can still enter. Security guard accepts the payment and is very nice. The trails are easy and there is a nice display of plants and orchids. Great stop.

Lovely quiet place just off the main road. 15k per nght and you can get electricity and water and banos. No showers. No wifi. Nice trails. Very busy on Sat and Sun and you might have trouble finding a parking place. If you do want to enjoy Pasto (we did) take the rojo C14 at the junction with the PanAm. You can get on/off at a big Exito in the centre.
