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.
free and level parking options for about 5-7 cars on top of cojitambo climbing rock. beautiful views to all directions. haven't tried the climbing here as I am traveling solo right now. some visitors during the day, quiet at night. close to cojitambo ruins.
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
Not possible anymore with a vehicle. They built a new gate few 100m before. Last part only on foot.
Report Check-InGreat free spot with views in all directions. Frequent hikers and vehicles coming and going, but still quiet. There's a spot about 100 meters from the end of the road which had vistas of the other valley and seemed to receive less traffic.
For Climbers: The camp spot is about a5 min hike from the anchors of the second pitch of salvado de la hierba from la gruta. We rapelled 2 pitches then began our day climbing. Total about 50 meters. I'll attach the guide photos. Pretty slabby tech climbing, needing at least 10 quick draws for the shorter sport routes. I felt the routes were more difficult than the grade suggested, but maybe i was having a bad day. We didn't finish projecting in time to climb back up so we had to trek some jungle to town walk around the crag and back up the road which was about 1.5 hours... oops
Really couldn't ask for a better climbing camp.
Thanks for this TIP, great place. We were here during fiesta and the party was whole night...Latin america!!!!
Awesom spot.
Great place to stay - very quiet and beautiful views!!! We even managed to get up there with our big rig (MB1017 - after a recommendation in the village) but it is a struggle, you need 4WD and the street is narrow - but when you‘re up there it‘s a perfect place...
Report Check-InGreat place and amazing views. No amenities. If you are self contained, no problem. Quiet at night and in the morning.
