The Forest Camp
Renovated since 2018, it is located in a pristine setting next to the El Bosque stream. It has tables and a quiet area for small groups.

Porters Camp
Established in 2005 by local porters, it's now an official riverside site. It's a small space with little protection from the wind, but a good base for connecting to the New Zealand camp.
