Check-Ins

$20 to stay here, not 12. Did not stay here, kept going North.

Nice pullout by the water. There’s a little walking path along the water here too. Good for the night in the roof tent. No amenities
Please clean up after yourself

FS Campground with lots of sites. Only a few rigs here on a Saturday in early June. There are OHV trails here so expect some use. Free but asking for a donation. Can still have a campfire here since it's a designated campsite with a fire ring even with the ban in the rest of the forest. Have usable Verizon LTE but it's only a bar or two. Cool camp host. Yours to enjoy protect and keep clean 🌲

This is a fairly new truck stop with fuel stations and a mini market.
Also has showers and coin-op laundry.

Um dos melhores postos que já passamos! Já rodamos América Latina, O Brasil 2 vezes e fomos extremamente bem atendidos, a comida estava ótima, tem uns docinhos regionais muito bons!
O banho foi gratuito, super quentinho e o banheiro é super limpo e bonito! Super recomendamos! Não dormimos mas fomos super bem recebidos!

This place is a hidden gem. Overnighted on a Saturday and only one other camper. Very quiet, beautiful and clean. Just as described. Will be back!

Private property up the road. This is second to last spot available until you hit the private property road. The last spot is a little more up, to the left overseeing a cliff, but if you have a group or bigger suv/truck, there likely isn't enough room to camp at.

This is a good sized spot next to main road.

Other spots are definitely better than this before this but you have to arrive earlier.

To much noise from the road and people just coming to walk with dogs. We didn’t stay

nice sandy beach quiet in early June not sure how it is in summer time

This is a pull trough site on the side of Engineer Pass Road. only one site, but will fit any size rigs. perfect for anyone doing the Alpine Loop. some ATV and 4x4 traffic during the day, but mostly quiet at night.

Currently closed. Unfortunate since there is great primitive camping/fishing at nearby lakes but nowhere to get water nearby (gas stations to the north best option now I think).

Really nice farm with Alpakas, Cows and horses. We stayed 1 night with our motorhome. The path from the main road is a bit challenging, but easier than we thought. Zezé is very helpful and gave us great tips for traveling in Peru. Furthermore he helped us with the SOAT. With foreign plate you can not get it everywhere. He figured out an agency in Juliaca for foreign plates. I have created an separate iOverlander entry in Juliaca for insurance.
I can really recommend this place. If you are interested in horseback riding this is the right place.
It is good for camping, but there are also rooms to rent.

It is peaceful & gorgeous views. Two pull outs about 1.5 miles off AK hwy. Swans moved away as we parked. Nice informative historical panel.

Lovely. Clean toilet. Nice fire pits and covered picnic. Beautiful birds. I DO have Verizon phone signal. Many people driving past up to somewhere else North. I’m happy here

Unpaved camping area next to the reservoir. Beautiful view. Lots of Mayflies.
$10 overnight

Quiet, safe place to overnight. Free dump station and potable water. Bathroom open 24hours. Friendly very helpful people in the Welcome Center with lots of useful info.

changed the pin type as you can't camp here

removed no camping from the title as it's incorrect

You can park anywhere in the event parking for the hotel above or anywhere in the parking lot. There is no designated spots for trucks or cars I called and the guy said you can just park anywhere as long as there’s no think nothing going on there’s tons of hotel parking when there’s no event.

Small friendly truck stop with car-camping/employee parking area. Mentioned I'm car-camping & cashier said 'nothing wrong with that!' No $5 fee that I see. Did buy $5 pulled pork sandwich so...who knows

We came here and it was perfect. The shower was really hot and clean. 10/10 for the shower but it’s a campground, we wanted to stay for the night, but we have to pay 35 box for.
We just didn’t see it directly but still a nice spot with a really cool hot and free shower. ( we do have the pass)

Here now. Absolutely beautiful. Be careful driving at full speed —especially after night fall — cows are let out of the pastures and wander the road.

Next to the river stands an abandoned concrete barn with a good sized flat grass place.
Take the little road just before the bridge left to Chao village. Could be tricky with a 2WD but it’s only 50m
Campsite is in sight of the road to Chao but everyone passing by waved gently

Great spot overlooking the entrance of the straights. The ruins are from the WWII fortifications. We were lucky and there was no wind when we were here.

Took us right away to replace a blown tire. Reasonable prices with friendly service.

Très bon accueil de la part du responsable. Pas de machine pour changer la monnaie, mais le responsable le fait. Toutes les machines fonctionnent bien. Grande machine 4.50$, petite machine 3.50$. Par contre, machine pour sécher sont extrêmement cher: 0.25$ pour 3 minutes et ne sont pas très efficaces. D’autant plus que l’essorage des machines à laver pourrait être amélioré. 3 tables hautes pour plier les vêtements. Lieux bien entretenus.

Set aside at least 3-4 hours with break if you wish to do the crest trail. When you reach the rock that has two white arrow pointing separate directions, both go to the same point and you can make a loop of the top crest trail. If you just want to see the crater, about 1.5-2 hour return is sufficient. Path is overgrown towards crest trail

just wanna update the spot. still good to stay. enjoy and keep it clean! good cell reception

despite the power issue mentioned before this camping is overall very lovely. a beautiful view towards the mountains to the south and a well kept property. the owner Raymond is also a really nice guy!

a nice lakeside spot. with nude locals and couples at weekends. perfect for a night.
