||
| Wild bush camping by river | forget the paid camping opposite side if you don't need showers or WiFi. free camping by the Riverside. flat grassy area for pitching your tent. probably accessible for cyclists cos the access slope was blocked by bricks. note that's beside a bridge on highway 5. noise from traffic |
||
| Yellow Building | with hundred of Kms of nothing, this yellow building is my lifesaver from wind. I don't know what it is used for but it is next to a river. definitely not residential it was weekend, no one was there working thus I camped on shed behind. probably u can try asking workers for permission if they are there working on weekdays |
||
| Mini Camping Rauls | now 200 pesos. maybe inflation or what. Raul is rather eccentric hippie but in a good sense. the WiFi advertised comes from the shop next to it haha |
