Check-Ins

The “road” to get close to the overlook, wild camping spot, seems to be ever changing but you’ll find a route to reach it that’s flat and a safe distance from the edge.

You’ll hear road noise overnight & the winds might be a bit more than your weather app states coming up the canyon BUT it’s worth it!

Camping site with water and toilet. Pre paid electricity is available

Comfortable and affordable Guesthouse in Chamba Valley, in a big and beautiful garden.
Rooms range between 350 and 500 Kw.
Different options are available, incl. rooms with fully equipped kitchen.
AC, cable TV, laundry included.
If you stay longer (or come back) they will give you a discount.

They have two places, which are nearby (200m), but not connected.
At the second place they now have a small chop, and a kitchen, which serves food.
Signposted from the main road!
The access road is in dire state, but will (hopefully) be graded soon.

Highly recommended. Lucy and Luis have created a very homey place despite the remoteness. Lucy met us at the gate and made us feel like old family friends from then on. Warm showers, nice Refugio with wood cook stove, and nice flat grassy spots for tents in the trees with ample wind protection. Many small features that make it downright magical, from interesting woodwork and use of gnarled branches to the “cisnes plasticos” swimming through the irrigation ditch. One decent river to ford by vehicle with a mildly sketchy footbridge for those on cycles or foot. Beautiful views, trails, very clean, and an attentive host - just a few reasons to make the “dificil pero no imposible” trip to Fundo de San Lorenzo.

Nice dirt lot. Deathly quiet and peaceful. 2 other campers overnight. Vault toilets, but must pack out trash.

7500 elevation. Ok campground. Small sites, most fairly close to another and not level. Dirt roads seem soft in spots. Most loops are closed now in the off season. Showers and flush bathrooms closed. Some pit toilets are open. Fantastic sunset.

Excelente camping! Com áreas de churrasco, cozinha compartilhada, uma pequena mercearia no local. Vagas para barracas (algumas com cobertura). Muitas árvores, energia. Banheiros limpos e chuveiros com água quente. Responsáveis pelo camping muito amáveis!

Very nice campsite with plenty of space. Sites are big rig friendly with nice lapa with hit water pool.

It's a lodge with campsite from a local NGO that supports projects in Nairobi. Very quiet place, far from the main road.
Rooms also available.
Camping 500 for 2 people.

They have a local bakery and some other local products.

Lovely people, very nice place if your in transit between Mombasa and Nairobi.

Great t mobile service, snowy drive up and a bit slippery on my rwd van.

Visitei o local porém não fiquei, não encontrei ninguém na recepção e não sei qual valor cobram, parece que a administração está desorganizada.

Price went even more up to 400 per load (clean and dry). It‘s way too expensive.

park here all day at the beach for free. fit our 21 ft van. parallel parking on one side street and pull in spots on the other

Fifteen minute drive down a sandy road, 4wd preferred but we made it in our transit connect with fwd. The road was pretty packed down but there were moments of losing traction. The weather was ideal, so maybe after a big rainstorm it would look different. It’s also another five minute drive to the Batona campsite, which you can reserve spots at online, with fire rings and water etc and I think is $5pp per night.

It sits right on the Batona trail which is a 50 mile trail that runs the length of Wharton state forest. We went on a hike to Apple Pie hill took a few hours and was really beautiful and wild.

This camp spot at these gps coordinates is right off the road, big and open. It can fit a few cars and we were the only ones there in March on a Sunday/Monday/Tuesday. But I could see this spot being popping mid-season. There was a pseudo-fire pit and some cool trails to walk down.

If you keep going down the road toward Batona campground there’s a pull off to the right with a few more spots before you hit the bridge.

We felt like we were in the middle of nowhere, it was super peaceful and quiet, just a few jeeps drove by on Sunday afternoon because the sandy road sets it off the main highway quite a bit. Definitely the best dispersed camping I’ve found so far near philly, only an hour away. Also recommend stopping by The Evergreen dairy bar on route 70, 10/10 chili dog.

Overall, great spot, serious gem.

Away from the usual noise and light pollution and supposed to be the darkest place in Qatar. Access fine for all vehicles and swimming possible although shallow at low tide.

Came here to crash the night before crossing the border. Huge puddle blocking the entire road right before the campground. I walked it in my sandals and it is very shallow but muddy. Didn’t want to risk it at dark alone and with only 4WD

Sorry; my phone autocorrected to “4WD” from “AWD”. Mud puddle would be fine in 4WD I’m sure

Very noisy, they organize lots of events (weddings, etc) and those days you'r not allowd to eat at the restaurante, using the Pool nor shower. Better staying at Cabaña Mar y Sol, beside Hotel Cataviento if looking for a cheap option or at Sirenito Camping with ta turtle rescue project.

Nice quiet night. Park is basically a dog park in a very nice neighborhood which is worth exploring on foot. Note that this site is probably not suitable for anything larger than a class b.

Same great place, with some improvements - a new entrance and the common area is fixed up a bit.

Dora as always is accommodating. She took 20 USD in lieu of 350 Pesos.

A good quiet, safe, peaceful night.

An absolute beautiful area. Even the Walmart down the road is spectacular though There are no overnight parking signs everywhere at the Walmart. No signs prohibiting you from staying at this Home Depot but we were very paranoid about getting kicked out just because it’s a great one! But we didn’t, completely undisturbed.
Cleanest bathrooms for the morning. When they open at 6 AM though, it’s very loud! 😂

This place is permanently closed.

Welcoming and friendly! Stopped here on the way to San Felipe from Ensenada. Piedad greeted us outside even though the restaurant was closed for the evening. She exchanged information with us, invited us for breakfast, and ensured we would be safe for the night. The bathrooms are sparkling clean. Practice your Spanish before you get here!

Large store, only a few other RV and vans stayed. Lot quieted after 1000p
Otherwise all was good

Passamos 1 noite aqui. Tranquilo, porém começa a circular veículos logo de manhã. @naestradacomleao

Un buen lugar para pasar una noche. Es tranquilo e iluminado. Encontramos una toma de energía eléctrica y recargamos baterías. Amanecimos frente al mar.

very nice place, many people in the evening, but after 23 hours it is calm and save (cameras)
great sunset over the river!

I wasn't able to find this place.

Sehr ruhig in der Nacht, auch am Tag trotz Baustelle nebenan. Die Polizei sah uns und ließ uns gewähren. Wenig Schatten durch einzelne Bäume

really really nice hostel whit 2 building next each to other. the owner Pierre Alain is very kind and there is a possibility to park motorcycle inside the yard. paid 15usd for a very comfy dorm bed. the place is super clean added whit great vibe !
