New little camping in front of Arcoiris, only 5000pppn - the cheapest we could find around here, super friendly owners. They kept our stuff for free while we hiked a couple of days in the valley (other campings like Arcoiris and Wulmul charge). And… drumroll… they accept credit card in their attached restaurant so it may help if you’re cash-strapped.
Downside: as of early 2022 they are still working on the hot shower, but they boil you a big pot of water if you ask
They may also drop you off at the trailhead - they asked for 6000, by far the cheapest option around - regular quoted price is 9-10000.

Report Check-InNice place on a small backroad of Pueblo Cochamo, clean but basic services. Camping with space for 20 tents and 1or 2 cars with rooftop tents, it's a tight turn off the road into the gate my 4 runner did it but something longer may struggle. Price for camping is. 6.000 p/p, hot showers, place to cook, really friendly host. They offer laundry for 5.000 per load not dried. They also take credit cards. Hostel looked nice but I didn't go inside.
