cañon macho de monte | Informal Campsite

November 7th, 2021 by Schiebockner

The property around the canyon is owned by the electricity company who are using part of the water for a hydropower plant further downstream.
Years ago they allowed people to park and camp on their beautiful property. But because there were huge problems with the trash visitors left everywhere access today is only possible on foot.

If I understood correctly, it is still allowed to camp in a tent on the property.
For vehicles there is a small parking area next to the road a few meters up the road from the canyon.
We talked to the very friendly and helpful guard in the small house another few meters up the road and he told us camping there was no problem and very safe because the police drove by regularly at night.
He also offered us potable water from a tab outside the house.
Other than that there are no facilities.

Few cars during the night, some traffic during the day. We had a good free night.

The gate was closed and locked at 6pm when we arrived. After speaking with locals who said it was safe, we parked and slept on the grass in front of the gate. Enough room for a couple rigs. In the morning several cars showed up with people visiting the canyon and river just down the road. Great cool temps! Free.
