Check-Ins

We drove down here in our 2wd truck. We are staying at a spot further up the hill because we tow a trailer. But this spot is awesome! Could totally make it in any van or truck, just take it slow. I just wouldn’t recommend towing anything down here, or attempting in the rain. The road is rutted and pretty hilly. If you can make it, the spot is right on a nice flowing creek, and it’s decently sized. Worth it!

Perfect place. Flat,quiet, clean hot shower and toilets. Table. We payed 1500 per adults and half price under 12 years old. Ok for big rig but the place are little bite narrow. For a truck maybe you have to stay in the parking lot. Wifi disponible but near the sower.

Superbe petit musée de miniatures et automates créé par un monsieur doué et imaginatif. Le lieu est magique et enchanteur. Ouvert de avril à Octobre, les vendredi, samedi et dimanche. Entrée 6 USD pour les adultes

Great tour operator, has a small office inside the gates of the Protea Hotel. phone Saira @ +265 999 080 006
They can arrange everything. We did a 2 day trek in Mulanje through them.

They allow overnight parking of vans, campers, etc. in their SOUTH parking lot overnight. There is security all night and we had no concerns with staying here. The only drawback is the south parking lot is under the i40 bridge/ramps and can be fairly noisy with traffic. If you are a solid sleeper you should not have any trouble here, and it is an absolutely fantastic location.

Restaurants in the pyramid, along with restrooms. Really neat elevator to the top of the pyramid for $8

Three acts of crime by passing vehicles last year. They now have security to watch over at night, and cameras. They also have new ablution blocks. Drinking water available if you ask, as well as electricity to charge from solar. They definitely seem to be working on improving things.

If you arrive and nobody is around, like me, just wait. Manager lives across the road. N$100.

Awesome spot for the night. There is one area where I was able to get Starlink connectivity through some trees.

Lots of people stop during the day and at night to utilize the bathroom. Ranger drove through a couple times.

no hay ningun servicio, no hay agua, energía, todo está destruido. hay un techo con parrillas, pero no hay mesas. bastante mal está el lugar. los baños no hay energía y tampoco AGUA. la municipalidad no se hace cargo. estuvimos de paso solo xq nos agarró la lluvia y queríamos armar la carpa (no se puede armar bajo los quinchos). Somos de Motoca Off Road.

closed during winter season. Entire campground closed

Stayed here for two nights waiting to board the boat to Porto Jofre. Quiet at night, close to downtown. If you park close to Culinária Brazao, you can use their WiFi.

All trees are cut down now :-( believe you can still stop for the night but it looks very sad now:-( We will be looking for somewhere else.

Their is a TON of camping just ahead of this sign. Just head on down any of the Forest Service roads and find a pull off... Easily identified with brown FS signs just off the main road. I stayed a week down a road and Forest Service never came down ma road 🪇

Came here on Friday 3PM to fill our EU bottle with an adapter. It took them half an hour because they didn’t have exactly the right fittings but they made it work. 30soles for 5KG

Highly recommended chalets, restaurant, bar and clean pool

Dump station is next to the air for tires on the south end of the parking lot. Dump station was working today and in good condition. $10 to get the key from the cashier. Follow the signs Car/RV on entry to the truck stop.

Very simple, bear and clean accommodations. A full size bed, a chair, a shower, a toilet and a small sink. The best part is the air conditioning, as the town is very hot. Our room #7 looked at the street, so it was very noisy. We paid C60k for one night. We had asked people in town and everyone said we could sleep in our van for free in front of the main square, but we wanted the shower, and the AC.

Free RV dumping: hassle-free waste disposal for your travel convenience. With flushing water and next to the pavilion potable water

Rooms for 200, 250 and 300 (for 2 person)
Fair price, but Water in shower not clear (grey colour).
Need to ask fan in reception (room for 200K).

Gate closed (late afternoon), I am guessing closed over the winter and not opened yet for spring.
Didn't see any no camping sign at the entrance.

large paved parking lot surrounded by trees with a view of silver lake. across the street from silver lake provincial park entrance. no amenities, but there is a gas pump in front of the smoke shop/convenience store.

it’s directly beside the highway, so there is some noise but not unbearably loud.

Beautiful campsite! If you continue to drive down NF-200 for about 0.6 miles, you will get to a campsite on your left that has a decently open sky for Starlink.
I had to put the satellite on my roof but it worked wonderfully.

Beautiful shaded camping area. No one else around at the current moment!

Definitely BLM managed area. Nice 3 mile hike and this is the trail head. Nice big gravel parking lot with picnic area. No sign lane saying you can’t stay here in the lot. Security cameras as well.

Still free! Easy in and out. Dump is level with the tarmac on the left side of the propane station. No cover or marker when we were there. Sign for water says not potable, but we were told it’s ok.

Great spots along this road. Very quiet and beautiful.

Checked CG April 12, 2024. CG still CLOSED. Gate to park also closed.

Nice and clean Hotel with super friendly staff. There is a kitchen for use and free potable water. We paid 175 Q for a room for 2 people and shared bathroom. They have rooms with private bathroom too, but don't know the price. They offer secured parking for bicycles and motorbikes and also for maybe 2 cars. No big rigs. A lot of noise from the street.

I arrived after 6pm, unfortunately the park is closed.

Ficamos 2 semanas com essa família incrível e acolhedora! Tivemos umas questões mecânicas para por em dia é Graham nos ajudou com indicações em Ibarra. Encontramos outros viajantes, confraternizamos e tivemos momentos inesquecíveis aqui!
Graham é um Australiano ex mochileiro casado com uma Equatoriana. Eles tem uma filha e querem que ela tenha contato com viajantes para um dia também ser uma! Oferecem uma estrutura incrível com um apartamento com uma ótima cozinha, banheiro e até quarto para quem necessita. Se pode lavar roupa na máquina de lavar. O lugar é realmente lindo lindo! Não cobram nada por disponibilizar toda essa estrutura, mas é de bom grado deixar uma contribuição para a conta de sua filha que irá viajar tbm um dia!

We stayed for 2 weeks with this incredible and welcoming family! We had some mechanical issues to catch up on and Graham helped us with directions in Ibarra. We met other travelers, socialized and had unforgettable moments here!
Graham is an Australian ex-backpacker married to an Ecuadorian. They have a daughter and want her to have contact with travelers so that one day she can be one too! They offer an incredible structure with an apartment with a great kitchen, bathroom and even a bedroom for those who need it. You can wash clothes in the washing machine. The place is really beautiful, beautiful! They don't charge anything for providing all this structure, but it's a good idea to leave a contribution to the account of your daughter who will also travel one day!

The women's showers have rainfall shower heads and PLENTY of hot water! Best road shower I've had this trip!
