Camping Parque Ardales

Great campsite for a walk along the Caminito del Rey. I booked the walk online and walked 20 minutes from the campsite to the entrance. Yes, the pitches are a bit slanted, but manageable with an EP system or road blocks. Showers are available and very basic. I can't say they're particularly clean, unfortunately. Furthermore, there's almost nothing to do at the campsite at the end of November, but there are plenty of hiking opportunities in the surrounding area.

It's truly a transit campsite. Lots of people stay for one or two nights. The sites are quite crooked. There are also a few plateaus for larger campers. All sites have a concrete picnic table. Restroom facilities are mediocre, with lukewarm water. So, it's more of an overnight stop for the Caminito del Rey than a campsite for a holiday. The start of the hike is within walking distance. Tickets cost €18 per person in cash. They can be purchased all day at the start.

A wonderful campsite if you love nature. That does mean a bit of discomfort sometimes, especially when standing on a leaning position. Upstairs by the pool, there's a fantastic view of the reservoir. The receptionist was very friendly.
