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.
A lonely pull-out with romantic city night view on the direction to Cumbemayo. No facilities, but LTE mobil connection. It's light not level we didn't care, but if with stones you can level the car, and there are a lot. Quiet between 10pm-5am, the road above which behind a rank of trees starts early to be busy. The spot is on a side road without traffic, so big rig can park but difficult to turn, may need to drive in backward.
From city to get here took us an hour, because in dark both mapsMe & googlemap tried to lead us to stairs or cliff. The best turn-off should be at Av. Peru and Av. M. de Cervantes. Once you are on the Av. M. de Cervantes, follow the zigzags up to KM8, there is a sign for turn off to a ruin.
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
We also discovered stairs rather than a road! However if we take the street called Diego Ferré, you will see stairs at the end of this very steep street, however do not worry! Take the sharp left before the stairs and it will take you up the switch backs overlooking the city. If you have come this far, we highly recommend you continue to the Stone Forest wild camp. We have posted our GPS route in the photos.
Report Check-InPerfect place with an overwhelming view over Cajamarca! Thank you for this recommendation!
Report Check-InThanks for the super nice spot, calm, nice view, eucalyptus smell... And thanks again, you even left the 2 rocks to block the wheels to show us where to park.
