Space equipped for overlanding, whether it be tent, camper, or trailer. Very nice, secure, natural, equipped with hot water showers, clean water refills, and dirty water disposal, laundry facilities, wifi. It offers many more entertainment and gastronomy options. The cost is fair and includes taxes and insurance. Additionally, depending on the budget or need, you can choose a rate with or without breakfast. I highly recommend it for families, couples, or friends. Excellent service. You can view the service offerings and rates in the WhatsApp catalog at 3155580367

This place is the same as the one pinned slightly north, it's a huge parking area close to the sea and we slept here a night without being sent away or any problems at all. It can be just very noisy if people pick-nick near you, especially in Ramadan time.

We stayed there with out campervan and it costed 7,000 CRC per person. The place is really near to the beach, but in a stablished place. The bathrooms and showers were very dirty and cockroaches, and the kitchen with lot of dirty dishes, etc. If you need water or a stablished place, it works, but if not, it’s better stay in front of the beach.

Very simple and efficient - less than 40 minutes on a Friday staying at 2pm.

Immigration told me I'd only get 3 months TIP. When I spoke to Aduana, I started with Can I please have 8 months like my friend (with photo of his TIP). She said no problem and disappeared to do the paperwork, and we got 240 days, from Mar 22 to Nov 17.

Sanesa asked for dog documents. As we pulled out the EU Pet Passport he said that's great. I went to show him the SAG papers from Chile and he wasn't interested. I double checked and he said, "no, pet passport is all we need".

To be honest I was slightly annoyed after all the effort we went through to get the proper docs. I don't recommend not getting the papers done in advance, unless you have time to return to Chile to organize.

stayed two nights while waiting out a snow storm in our van. other people were here living out of their car.
not a bad spot to sleep for a night or two but I would get here early in the summer, I'm sure it fills up quick.
if they had some garbage cans then it would have been better.

Try driving past the marker, no 4x4 needed but a bit of clearance does not hurt. The road does not go very far.

There are a few spots right by the river, not super level but plenty of rocks around. Small pool in the river to cool down.

Not much wind protection. Great for Starlink. Super quiet at night, not visible from the street.

This is an informal campground with seven covered picnic tables, and a vault toilet. There is also as a big lot with room for people to spread out and it is right on the river. A few mosquitoes showing up at sunset right now, but not too buggy like other people have said it can be here. Easy access for even low profile vehicles and I am getting two bars of 5G Verizon.

What a place, what an experience. Freddie and Toni are your hosts. Two passionate individuals with hearts of Gold and in tune with their patrons. BikeForge is a "feeling rather than a destination"

I visited as a stranger and left a piece of my heart.

Friendly people. Don't expect too much of the "hot" showers. At least in off season (end of March) both toilets and showers were open from 8pm to 8am. There was no light in the bathroom. I couldn't perceive any difference between the "hot" and the "cold" water. Small restaurant run by friendly ladies is still open. Good base for astrtourism.

This place is awesome. There are a few nice spots to set up right by the river. Also there is a huge field that you can pretty much post up about anywhere. Verizon service is decent at 4g. You do need a discovery pass to camp. Fires are not allowed other than that have a ball and clean up before you go. Y'all be safe and stay rad out there.

Huge new road being built into village, totally spoiled the vibe of the place. Wouldn’t bother. Camp is across the road from the hotel, leave moto in car park and walk 50m across road. Not the best situation as the car park has lots of reversing mini buses… lots of noise. Construction, petrol water pump going for hours on end to pump water to the hotel. Down by the entrance lots of sellers… what a same. Nature ruined yet again. Sorry to be so negative. Wouldn’t support the vandalism that has been done in putting the road in…

Access roads to plaza are not really suitable for big rigs. We’re 7,35m long, 2,35m wide and 3.56m high and just made it with a bit if back and forth at some junctions, but then the access to the plaza was blocked (seemed to be only temporarily). When trying to leave the centre some police guys stopped us and said, we’re too big for these streets.
So, it’s doable but I would not recommend this for big rigs.

As described. We didn't read the description, and took on the steep rocky road. Paid $1 per motorcycle. It was steep and rocky. We excited the recommended route the next day. The road is not on OpenSteetMap data/OsmAnd.

So, head to:
13.27839° N, 87.87626° W
then head South on this road which will take you past 13.27138° N, 87.86512° W, and into the Miradores.

amazing camping with a view of sunrise.
we weren't alone. Another local couple and a family. They did play music and talk loudly, deciding to do so right next to our tent. Consider asking if he is expecting anyone else and camp at a different viewpoint?

after being tied up, attacked with machetes and guns in Belize, it was nice to know there were fences, gates and Roberto carries a handgun and tactical knife and looks a bit like Action man

only accessible for small cars and vans. our L2H2 Ducato was too high and heavy to cross the small wooden bridge.

We tried to go from Llumpa to Yanama today. We got stuck in a mudpit a couple of kilometers from Llumpa on 20° angle in the direction of the cliff, even though low range and lockers were engaged. Quite scary. We would have made it on the 2nd try but nonetheless we turned around there because a local told us that the road is impassable at the moment. I have put another warning pin there.
From all that we have seen from the road, I would not attempt this road without 4wd at this time of year (rainy season).

it is labeled "Non-Potable Water." made me nervous enough to pass. if you're more adventurous, it's only 10' from the edge of the parking area and threaded so you could easily fill your onboard tank

Stayed here for one night after leaving Yuma. Pick up supplies before going to site cuz there's nothing nearby. Was able to drive in off in my low clearance van. Do so with caution.

didn't have a shower but did some laundry, very expensive compared to other places we've used on our trip. $3.75 per load and the machines aren't that big. wouldn't recommend unless you're desperate to do laundry.

Stayed for 3 nights at Musangano at the campsite. Facilities were well looked after and clean, hot water in the showers and tp in the toilet blocks. We had dinner and lunch at the restaurant (they have a great menu with plenty of options for different diets). There are a few hikes on the property that take you through the forest and up the hills (but watch out for dug out mine pits, there's a few along the trails). Quick WiFi available at reception and the restaurant. It was a quiet and peaceful spot and we'd camp there again for sure! 20 per night for 2 people.

Graciasss a que teníamos prendida la GoPro no los pidieron coima, al frenarnos vinieron 8 militares directo a nosotros, uno quería subirse a revisar, otro pedía documentación y otro hacía preguntas. Cuando se subieron a revisar vieron que teníamos la GoPro encendida así que le hizo la señal de que estábamos filmando y nos devolvieron la documentación y nos dejaron ir
Tengan cuidado.

Thanks to the fact that we had the GoPro on, they did not ask for a bribe. When we stopped, 8 soldiers came directly to us, one wanted to get in to check, another asked for documentation and another asked questions. When they came up to check they saw that we had the GoPro on so they gave the signal that we were filming and they gave us back the documentation and let us go.
Be careful.

Got stoped here on a Friday evening 6pm and 3 officers crowd around my window as ask who is driving. As if they cannot see. Then they quite aggressively try to tell us we can't drive in Ghana with a UK right hand drive car.

I explain we have been in the country for 3 weeks already and it's allowed, we have seen many police checkpoints. We are tourists, I showed them our TIP paper which clearly states we are allowed for 60 days.

They ask alot of silly questions trying to hold us for as long as possible, of course we have quick answered prepared. Realising that we were not going to give in, they let us go

There are too many unpleasant police checks on this road at night. So I pulled into this petrol station at about 7.30pm, straight away they were happy to let us park for the night and a guy guided us to a spot next to the other trucks. It was Friday and music all night from the bar nextdoor, I put earplugs in
