applicablehimalayan32 | Much better than expected after reading some of the comments. Ablutions were clean, swimming pool was working and we used it lots. Only issues were some of the sinks blocked up and odd lights not working. The canyon view is spectacular. Be aware of jackals and baboons coming into the camp at night. |

doctoreverywhere | We stayed one night on a park behind of the Firefighter Station. They let us wash our dishes and refill our water bottles. The personel was very nice. Its close to the city of Salsacate and a Gas Station.

HomelessAdventures | This area is sedan friendly. I spent one night here and I rented Hyundai Tucson. Plenty of space. My nearest neighbor was more than 100 feet away. Some existing fire pits were already here. Usable T-Mobile service, barely. I stayed closer to the road. I liked the views here! |

Nomad N Rad | As described below, when you see the “Pandora” sign you have arrived. Don’t rely on Google as it places the point of arrival a few hundred metres shy of the actual location and didn’t show the road at all - not reassuring when you are traveling in the dark! The parking area is not at all level and we were only able to prevent a brain thrombosis while sleeping there by hogging most of the available space with our lone vehicle to be able to level out. We checked in with Edgar the night before and the tours begin at 8:00 am. We arranged to do the Colinas Verticales hike with other guests staying at the facility. The hike was led by Bro, who is friendly and knew the way but spent most of the time taking endless photos of the hikers. The hike was quite slippery and muddy in spots, pulling the boots off hikers that had gone in too deep, and is fairly strenuous. The tour is in Spanish only and doesn’t provide a whole lot of information. We were charged 100k COP per person for the guided hike and lunch, which seemed slightly steep in relation to the cost of living in Colombia but we were happy to support the endeavour. It was nice to have both bathrooms and showers available but as noted below, the water is cooold!

voluntarychard16 | La caminata hasta ahí es exigente, nos llevo 3,5 hs llegar, y llegamos bastante cansadas. el cajón azul es muy hermoso, vale la pena ir hasta ahí. el refugio tiene de bueno que está cerca del cajón. nos cobraron $15000 por persona, dormimos en colchones en el piso en una habitación con 14 personas más. la habitación está ubicada justo arriba del comedor y hasta tarde de noche había mucho ruido. en el refugio hay muy buena calefacción, no te dan abrigo de cama, cada quien lleva su sobre de dormir. tiene solo 2 baños (water, pileta y ducha), resulta poco para la cantidad de gente que va. se puede usar la cocina para cocinar. el lugar estaba limpio, los precios de comida y bebida eran un poco caros, nosotras llevamos nuestra propia comida y pudimos usar los insumos de del lugar. Fuimos fuera de temporada y estaba lleno, no es muy grande el lugar. |

Ze Wandering Frogs | Spent a couple of days there fixing a leak on the transfer box on my 2006, td5 defender. Pretty clean shop! Mamadou who has very friendly and competent was my assigned mechanics (I spoke French with him). Osman got involved also a couple off times. Mohammed Lemin was also helpful to find parts and coordinate and even drove me back to the hotel while my car was in the shop. The repair needed just an O-ring replaced but it still took couple of days to remove the transfer box, diagnose the issue and put everything back together. They couldn’t procure the exact reference o-ring but after some research, they found an equivalent which is still holding after about 1300km including 800 km off-road in the Mauritanian desert. Total cost was about 10,000 MRU including 4000 for parts and 6000 for labor, about €250 which seems to be a fair price.

efficientclarinet24 | We stopped here to enjoy the view and have breakfast, it is definitely a good spot to spend the night in a Van. It is flat and the view is amazing. Some buses pass through occasionally. |

compasschronicle.com | Place ON the street, not NEXT to the street. We were persuaded to stay the night by the beautiful view. However, there were a lot of very fast cars at night (on weekdays!) and it is very loud on the cobblestones. Therefore we cannot recommend this place for an overnight stay. But maybe we were just unlucky with the amount of traffic? IG: compasschronicle |

Pierre Martel | Je reviens sur les paiements que l'on peut faire sur le code QR qui est à côté des stations de payment. Ne passez pas par eux. C'est tout croche et sa sent la fraude. Passé par le clavier des stations, et vous aurez un coupon pour le tableau de bord. Et d'ailleurs très simple par le stations! |

anschnallenabfahrt | Stayed here in total for one week. A very good option for staying in town nearly for free. Nearly because they ask for a tip for ,dogfood‘ … We gave 20Q in total and it was fine for them.
In our opinion: Recommended! After our one week over here we stayed another week at Verde Eventos, which was nicer but with 125Q per night also much more expensive ;) Really loved Antigua thow! 💙 YouTube / Insta: @anschnallenabfahrt |

bushellaz | We spent one night here, the host was a very nice young lady. We would have preferred one of the grassy spots instead of paved, but that part of the campground was closed to reseed the lawn. The creek is very quaint, as is the town. Unfortunately the neighbors across the creek don't care the best for their property so if you are looking for spotless beautiful views this may not be for you. The bathrooms were large, modern and clean. |
