Itinerary description

Trail to Conchagua starting from El Faro to El Espiritu de la Montaña camping ground, there are some points to have in mind previous start the trail
- You can get to the starting point by car and then go to the top walking, trail is hard, especially if you carry all your camping stuff, but if you start early there is always a possibility that someone give you a ride in a busy day (saturday or sunday) that was my case 😁
- Access road to the point can be hard in winter, so is better not to bring a compact car here, trust me... if you will drive yo the top, you definitely need a 4x4 and very good skills, the road is tricky and is too narrow in some points
- Campground is small, so you will be very close to other tents in a crowdy day
- Be prepared for rain in winter and very strong wind in some hours

despite of that, worth it, views are amazing in the top

Campground area is on a wood patform in front of Gulf, things to have in mind, if you place your tent in the edge, bring some ropes to fix it in a better way because wind can be very strong by momments bad thing, there are no place defined for each place, so if you get there in a crowdy day, every tent will be very near, so you literal listen every one else conversation :|
