Description

In addition to being a hostel and hosting work away volunteers, Donkey Sunrise accepts overlanders. Plenty of space for larger rigs, but you’ll want to come in from the north off the main highway. 100 meters or so after the road splits to La Union (stay left on the main highway), look for the little off-ramp just before the little bridge at KM 91. The black gate with a big white panel and logo, if shut, is easy to see. Otherwise turn East opposite Parque San Luis. Plenty of room for multiple rigs. No low branches but you might have to maneuver around small individual trees and bushes in the yard. Easy enough for us in full-size US truck with pop top camper. Hot showers, motorbike and mountain bike rentals. Paragliding available nearby (Valle Fe Cauca is a world-famous XC paragliding destination). Super friendly host and some meals can be taken - just let them know in the AM if you’re interested.

Great place to camp for awhile. They have water, electricity, beers, food and hot sowers. The owners parents and Sophia were taking care of everything! There is room for several campers, we fit in with a high top transit. Per night it was 50 for two. We also did laundry for a little more. If you want to paraglide they will also hook you up!

They never answered our WhatsApp messages. Stopped by to a locked gate and no answer. I think they’re closed again..

Super nice hidden campsite which is very well maintained. 35k for a night with two persons. Additional 10k pp if you want breakfast, breakfast was very good. Warm rain shower and clean bathroom. They let us use a bathroom of one of the rooms they have. And we could use the laundry machine for 15k. Definitely recommend this place.

I was the first camper since the Pandemic hit which is great news for travellers.
It's a great spot for camping - lots of space and places to sit and relax.
The swimming pool mentioned is now a part of the neighbours, still available but costs extra.

In fairness I can't comment on all the facilities since they opened up for me but they're busy getting everything ready again.

It's an incredibly comfortable place and Tim, the owner, is a welcoming character with lots of local knowledge.

He can organise tours on motorbikes and MTBs too.

Tim can be Whatsapped on +57 310 2577385

Stayed here a couple of nights, Tim and Jorge really looked after us. All the amenities of what you need from a camp ground inc hot shower and laundry service. They have some meals to offer and cold drinks in the fridge. There is a Small shop around the corner selling basic provisions. A nice spot to stay, plus they do adventure activities .

Echo the comments of SidewaysMoon - just an excellent campground that caters very well to Overlanders needs. The pool is a huge bonus !
Tim, the Dutch owner, makes you feel very comfortable and there is a great vibe at the place. Facilities are excellent, not noisy and wifi is good.No height or size restrictions. One of our favourites so far.
