Good place for a quiet night should you be on the search between Malatya and Nemrut…

From the main road take a turn onto what seems to be the old road. There’s also some possibilities to camp, but a steep gravel road with some small washouts leads further up for more separation to the road and a nicer view. Not sure if a 2wd can make it…
Nobody came along, totally quiet, can be windy though…

Beautiful site next to a (very) small river. We took water from it to cook with. Place is a bit down from the road so you are out of sight. Kids can walk around/play a bit also because of that.

Joy River Backpackers

Joy River Backpackers is a genuine rustic rural African village experience. It is a good stay if you don’t mind rural village life, sights and sounds.

Joy River is nestled in the Blyde River Valley, tussen die bos in berge (between the bush & mountains), and situated at the very beginning of the Blyde River Canyon on the Panorama Route (R532) 2km south of Bourke's Luck Potholes in the rural African village called Moremela.

Graskop, the town closest to us is 34km south, with God's Window, the Pinnacle Rock, Lisbon & Berlin waterfalls on route.

North of us is Bourke's Luck Potholes (2km), Diatla restaurant (4 km), Three Rondavels (10 km), the Leopard hiking trail (13 km) Ba-Dinkwanyane hiking trails (20 km) and Echo Caves (30 km)

The spot is a overlooking a great green plain with lots of isolated trees.
To the eastern the beautiful red sandhills of the Sahara.
Of course there is no water in the lake ( so please take the empty bottles with you, they won’t ever fill up)

We slept here after crossing the Laos-Cambodia border. It was very quiet during the night and windy. Good place to sleep.

The campgrounds are closed here for some reason right now so we spent the night here. No problem with authorities. There was a lot of activity from visitors stopping to see the view though until after sunset.

Here you can ride with an small old steam train, from Moldovița to Argel and back. There is a 40 min break in Argel, to buy some food. The whole event takes around 3h. You can do some reservation online, but you have to pay cash on the event day.

Price was 50 RON p.P.

Free space at the river,not the nicest place, but the only one we found. Good if you want to do the narrow gauge line (small steam train) ride on the next day.

The road is as described. Not bad until the last half mile. You approach a steep hill with bad ruts filled with large rocks. We backed down and turned around.
there are places to camp below. which we intended to do. However, a wild fire started on the next mountain east. At that point we felt it safer to leave. We were sad to leave but even sadder was the beautiful forest being destroyed quickly. No one fighting the blaze. We saw some lovely birds. One trogon and bridled titmouse.
