Peru, Cusco - Camping
We just received that info and will check it out when we are there, but some traveller stayed there already.
O - tone:
"Quinta Lala"
Parking and campground for bikes in Cusco
This private eco reserve is situated between eucalyptus trees above Cusco. It has a marvelous view over the city center and you are out of the hassle of the town. It takes three minutes to walk to the ruins of Sacsaywaman and twenty minutes to descend by foot to the old Plaza de Armas of the Inca Capital.
Earlier this year more long distance travelers visited us to stay a few days up to a few weeks and made this their base while they visited Cusco and its surroundings. They asked us why we didn't offer our meadow to a broader public. Since we like the stories about their journeys and their experiences on the road from Alaska to Tiera del Fuego vice versa. So we decided to open our land to these kinds of travelers.
As long as the ambiance is good, not much is necessary to offer travelers a peaceful and convenient shelter. We speak Dutch, English, Spanish and French. There are facilities for laundry, hot shower.
So you are invited, and very welcome to stay with us.

How to reach us:
From the Plaza de Armas enter Plateros and its continuation Saphi. At the end of the wider road you turn sharply right at the first hairpin (Billboard: “CUSCO PRIMERO”), and follow the steep ascending road. Leave the church at your left; go through the second hairpin and zigzag another kilometer until you see in a curve a wooden sign at your left hand which says: "Hacienda Llaullypata, Reserva Ecoturistica Privada". Enter this little cobbled road; that's the place to be. The second house on the right is Quinta Lala.

Hola de Cusco,
Let see if I understand your pricing right.
For one person traveling by moto and staying in a tent would be....
2.5 + 8 + 5 = 15 soles
correct?

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
