We spent one night here, cam and safe. The river is warm. We paid $10 a night for 2 adults and 3 children, and $4 access to the river (free for children). |

naturwunderer_&photografnix | We sleept for 2 nights ( 06-08.03.2023) with our RV on the Parking lot, which is levelled, big rig friendly and lights and a security camera. They charged us the 8,75 USD per Person. This is absolute ok, because you have Hot clean Shower, clean toilet with seat and paper and a beautiful pool with mosquito protection. You have also free drinking water and WiFi at the dining room. The Staff are sooo friendly. Perfect place for bird watching. You will find some hikes around the Center. Here are a lot of Parrots and sometime Owls. Walking to the Zoo ~15/20 Minutes |

adammontambo | We came in the morning, the parking lot was empty, plenty of room to maneuver, our 38 foot bus. Lots of room for the dogs and kids, come during the summer and there is a spray park that should be open. |

Danes on the Road | Went here to work for the afternoon and hoping that our hose was long enough to reach the spigot (which is still open). However, there's about 20 meters / 65 feet from the nearest parking spot to the spigot. Restrooms available at the park, however they are not exactly the cleanest. The area is frequented by homeless people as well, but felt completely safe. |

mikeoboyle21 | Crashed a night on the side street right in front of the zoo. Light traffic and a few dog walkers but that was about it. Left early since there is a school right there. No bothers no signs no knocks |

mastamatis | Nice spot. It’s not secluded, but nobody bothered us. Closest is a fisherman’s house and the behind you up the hill is another house but you can only see the roof area so pretty much out of view of that property. There is a steep rocky patch of road going down to the beach. We used 4x4 to get back up in the morning. |

davebrookhouser | Take the dirt road before hitting the little village at the dead end of this main road. It’s a very short dirt road leading to a level turnaround with stairs leading down to a tiny, beautiful and pretty epic beach. No cell service (even with a signal booster) but there is an active hotel down the beach and within sight. The road is dirt and and uneven in spots, but totally doable in 2WD. High roofs might be an issue but the foliage is light and doesn’t appear capable of tearing off any solar panels (It didn’t mine). Definitely not for big rigs, but perfect for VanLifers. My first day a motorcycle cop stopped by to enjoy the scene and left without a care. I waved to him as he left. A local walked by and said, “You’ve come to the best place”.
The second evening a large group of gringos came to do the same. And some young partying locals made a stop at 3:00 am and left 30 minutes later. A wonderful, near constant, soft ocean Breeze with 52dB of waves from the open van doors. Solar panels get direct sunlight beginning at 9:15 a.m. and it goes throughout the whole day. Site is level and could accommodate 2 camper vans and still leave some room for the local visitors. ZERO flying bugs, like NONE (in early March anyway). Please don’t ruin this spot. It’s clean, so let’s please keep it that way. This is my first novel find for iOverlander and I’m pretty proud of it. It is a great place. I stayed three days and three nights. |

travis.j.howard12 | I had to hit up a hardware store and was looking for a place to park for the night, the parking lot behind Bombshells is massive. Pulled up, no issues and there is a security guard on patrol here. Bombshells is a sports bar, food is alright but a bunch of tvs to watch some games. |

irialc.02 | Showers with curtains where the toilets and changing rooms are. The water is not too cold. Just be aware that the parking closes at 6pm. |

on-the-road-again.nl | Nice guesthouse in the Volcanoes area. The place is new, spacious, clean, and nicely decorated. Hot showers and flush toilet. The owner is Salus (+250788468286). He is a guide in the area, and he did everything to make us feel at home. We paid 50.000 for a double room, including breakfast. They have two other rooms, one is more like a family unit. There is a shared terrace and living room for the guests. Secure parking. We cooked next to our car. But we could also place our stove on the terrace or living room if we wanted to. So, all in all, it felt more like an apartment than a room in a hotel (also because we were the only guests). We had a hard time finding a good campspot or affordable room in de proximity of the headquarters of Vulcanoes NP. As everything in this area is focused on the high-end tourist, ór a bit shabby. So this was a nice place. Its 15 minutes drive to the headquarters. We just showed up, Salus wasn't there at that moment. Better to call in advance, although somebody of the staff will be happy to help you. You can also book the room online, but it was more expensive. They did our laundry, washed our car, and made a packed breakfast for our hike. Really friendly and welcoming. They have a bigger parkinglot next to the house: a walled area with gravel (see picture). Not a beautiful spot but big enough for a car (or 2) if you want to camp. Salus also said you can camp on the parking of his house or with a ground tent on a small piece of grass. But its a bit small. He really would like to welcome more visitors, so you are more than welcome. You can discuss an appropriate price for camping with him. Directions: There isn't any sign. But if you come from the south, you take the last street right before the Tiloreza ecolodge. Then, it is the second building to the left (red gates). |

on-the-road-again.nl | The headquarters is the starting point of all the activities in Vulcanoes NP. You arrange your permit (75$ for Bisoke, pay by card) here. Whether you go hiking Bisoke or do a Gorilla tracking, you have to check in here at 7am in the morning. From here you still have to (self)drive towards starting point of your hike/track (30 minutes drive for Bisoke). You can't meet your guide at the starting point of the hike, even if you arranged everything in advance. You have to come here first to check in. Can take up to an hour untill you finally leave towards the starting point. Which all felt a bit pointless to us. At this time a (rapid) covid test (5$) is still necessary for hiking, a PCR test (50$) for the Gorillas (cash). Proof of vaccination is not enough. |

on-the-road-again.nl | 6-8 hour return hike up and down the Vulcano with 1100 altitude meters. Tough hike, especially when muddy in rainy season. But a beautiful one. You do have a chance to see gorillas on this track. Hike is 75$ excluding tips and covid test. Important: The headquarters of Vulcanoes NP in Kinigi is the starting point of all the activities. You arrange your permit there (card payment) and a Covid test (cash). Whether you go hiking Bisoke or do a Gorilla tracking, you have to check in at the headquarters at 7am in the morning. From here you still have to (self)drive towards starting point of your hike (30 minutes drive for Bisoke). You can't meet your guide at the starting point of the hike, even if you arranged everything in advance. Everybody has to come to the HQ first to check in. Can take up to an hour until you finally leave towards the starting point. So the actual hike doesn't start before 8.30/ 9.00 AM. The whole proces felt a bit pointless and a waste of time, especially because the rangers didn't want to be too late at the summit because of the unpredictable weather in the area. But if you look beyond the bureaucracy, the hike is beautiful and worth it. At this time, a (rapid) covid test (5$) is still necessary for hiking Bisoke because of the Gorillas. Proof of vaccination is not enough. |

on-the-road-again.nl | Just a heads up: if you want to stay here because of the proximity to the headquarters of Volcanoes NP (where all the activities start), know that the direct route that Google maps is showing isn't drivable for cars. You have to drive all the way around via the main road. |

onemonthoneride | Only border that has not been burned in the Titikaka area. Desaguadero and Copacabana are not an option. The road to Tilali was not blocked but I guess it can change pretty fast. Once you get to migration, everything is smooth and easy. No fees to exit Peru or enter Bolivia. Just follow the main dirt road to Puerto Acosta and do the Bolivian paperwork there. Be ready with cash and gas as there is nothing until Achacachi |

jayssmith | Very nice campground. Laundry, heated bath houses, flush toilets, store on-site, etc…. Expensive compared to others but they deliver on the extra cost with great customer service and amenities. $63 / night w our AAA discount for complete hook-up site (water, electric and waste, cable internet) They have 2 fenced in dog parks (one for 20lb and under and a large dog park…great for the furry friends). Awesome access to the beach and a great 2.5 mile loop you can walk from the campground to the Bull River Beach (awesome beach…don’t let the River fool you…this is a really nice beach) that you can walk north along the beach where the river enters the Atlantic…at North Beach. Great beach bars and restaurants along the way…all w/in walking distance of the campground. Highly recommend this site! |
