Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
Near the Acueducto del Padre Tembleque, a must-see spot in my opinion.
The coordinates are at the north entrance, where there is a large flat open area. Any vehicle could make it.
There is a rough road which leads down and across the valley where there are more areas suitable for vans or tents.
I rode my motorcycle down closer to the railroad tracks and set up a tent. There were a few people there around sunset for photos, and then again in the morning a few people went past, but nobody bothered me. A police officer on an ATV went by as I was packing up my tent and he didn't stop or say anything.
The nearby town of Santiago Tepeyahualco has places to get food and water if you need.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
Police moved us on stating this was dangerous and feared we would be robbed or kidnapped.
We set up camp got into bed at 8pm when we got a knock on the van. The police said we had to move for our own safety. As it was dark we were not keen to drive, they offered to escort us to a field opposite the police station in Zempoala, which we have also marked. We spent the night in the field opposite police station which was all good :)
location is closed now "due to pandemic". there is a cop here that let people pass after some "dialog". we walked there no probs, few cars spoke to the guy and drove through. overnight stay is probably still possible on the dusty field before the entrance but i didn't stay
