29552, El Chorro
Been here?
A peaceful wild spot in nature with a superb, open view and a mostly flat space beside the reservoir. The access track is manageable in a van but has exposed rocks, and a fallen tree has previously made wider vehicles difficult to pass. Space is limited to about 2 motorhomes or vans, with no services. Walkers and aircraft may pass, although flights stop after 22h.

Incredible place with a wonderful view. Very peaceful and clean. The road is easily accessible by van. Highly recommended.
Super nature spot! You feel small in front of such a view! This place urgently needs to be preserved! Please leave with ALL your rubbish, including cigarette butts and toilet paper. Planet Earth does not wish you harm, so do not harm it... And it is unfortunate that humans once felt the false need to create airplanes, resulting in an air corridor above this wonderful spot.
A wonderful night among finches and pine trees. Right next to the dam.
We spent the night of the 31st October here. Super peaceful,no noise,just a couple of walkers. Not too bad access need to go slow & be aware. Not the best for signal, we are on Spanish & UK networks No services If your in a micro camper & no bathroom if you are remembering to take tissues with you remember bags to take your used tissues with you. Ive been there, its just respectful to others.
We spent a quiet, peaceful night here without any problems.
Superb unobstructed view, a lovely level area for a van, an easy-access path, and even the road leading there is beautiful. The lake is not visible from the van but is about twenty meters farther on.
Very beautiful place in the middle of nature, without a soul—although a little fox did show its face. A breathtaking sunset. No more airplanes after 10 p.m. We were alone in the world. Relatively clean area; remember to leave it just as beautiful after your visit.
Very nice place despite the passing airliners. It stops at night, which is the main thing.
Spot in the middle of nature, very pleasant and peaceful. Conveniently located less than 25 minutes from the start of the Caminito del Rey hike. Space for a maximum of two motorhomes or vans. We also had a visit from a fox.
Very quiet and level place in the middle of nature, with an incredible view of the Andalusian hills. We did not hear or see a single car all night.
A very quiet place near the dam, with a few walkers but, above all, a magnificent view. Beware: the path is blocked at the entrance by a fallen tree, but we were able to get around it with our van. It would be complicated for a wider vehicle to maneuver through as it is.
Beautiful place and peaceful energy. We stayed there for a week and a half. Occasionally there were people and cars; quieter during the week and busier at weekends. Everyone greeted us kindly. We had a wonderful, peaceful time there. Highly recommended. Good internet.
We had a very quiet night here before going to the Caminito del Rey the next morning.
Stayed one perfect night here! The view is serene! Only air traffic noise during the day. Very quiet and peaceful at night! Had a fox visit at night but was calm and non-threatening but as others have stated, please don’t feed it or leave any food/garbage behind! spot was clean and beautiful! Let’s keep it that way!
Lovely and no trash! Keep it that way!
Perfect spot! However, be vigilant: at nightfall we were visited by a fox—not aggressive but persistent, coming very close to us. It seems that people feed it, as this behavior is very surprising and abnormal. To everyone coming here, avoid feeding wild animals; this endangers both their safety and ours.
Excellent stopover for spending the night. Access was via a paved road full of curves, but it was easy to drive. The spot was occupied, so we found a place only 100 meters away. The landscape offers impressive views and several nearby walking trails. During the day, there were some cars and people hiking, but the night was quiet. Highly recommended for resting!
Our first stop after collecting our rental motorhome. Very easy access. A small barrier to pass before enjoying a magnificent view. Very quiet and very clean when we visited. Thank you, Park4night and its community :)
Slept wonderfully, with a beautiful sunset and a fantastic view. A well-marked hiking route also starts there, from the reservoir to El Chorro.
