Description

Flat land formerly used as a construction material deposit. Quite well protected from the wind. Nice view on the steppe and on Sarmiento from above. You can take a walk in the steppe to the Bosque Petrificado to have a plunging view (illegal, if you get busted, you will get fined; you have been warned).

Report Check-In

Good place to spend a night but an idiotic suggestion to walk down into the petrified forest! Free entry anyway and you can get as close as one wants to the logs. Ranger didn't care what all the locals proved by sitting, standing, lying, licking on the stony wood, or taking debris as souvenirs. Frustrating to watch.
You can access the site also from the south via this wild camping spot. Good gravel road saves some kms if you don't have any business in Sarmiento.
