Skype user: Panama Rafting: White Water Rafting & River Tours in Chiriqui
When travelers visit Panama or any other country in Central America, one of the most common thoughts that come to their minds is an unexplored land of virgin jungles full of exotic wildlife. Whitewater River Rafting gives them a unique opportunity to discover the tropical rainforest from the distinct perspective that comes from experiencing the adrenaline of running a rapid and contemplating nature's scenery from the river.
Panama rafting is just being discovered and ever since the word started spreading out, the rivers of the province of Chiriqui have been particularly drawing the attention of rafters and paddlers from all over the globe.
Considered by many experts as one of the most attractive destinations for whitewater river rafting in Central America, the rivers of the province of Chiriqui in Panama are packed with thrills and beauty to captivate all, and Boquete has naturally become Panama's base for most of the whitewater river rafting outfitters.

Quetzals Trail: Hike one of Panama's most incredible Eco-Paths
"El Sendero de los Quetzales" is a 9.6 km trek (total length of 6 miles) in Panama's western highlands that connects the towns of Boquete and Guadalupe (Cerro Punta). Although the difference in altitudes between both towns is around 1 km, the real change in altitude when hiking this trail is approximately 2 kms (with all the ups and downs!).
Renown for its beauty, hikers will have a chance to encounter Chiriqui's wild cloud forest, waterfalls, rivers and streams, explore its mountains and hills and discover its valleys and peaks. Hiking the trail takes an average of 4 to 7 hours, that basically depends on your hiking pace. This enchanted path can be hiked uphill or downhill. Each option presents its own advantages and disadvantages. All of our hiking tours depart from Boquete.

Baru Volcano Trek & Camp: summit to Panama's highest point
At 3,475meters (14,500 feet), the Baru Volcano, is Panama's highest point. The trip to the top of the Volcano, which is no longer active, is an adventure for the fit and reckless only. On a clear day you will be able to contemplate the Pacific and the Caribbean from the Volcano's peak which is marked by a cross and offers spectacular 360 degree views. On your way up you will also encounter several of its 7 craters and appreciate how the vegetation of the cloudy rainforest gradually changes from large trees at the beginning of the hike to smaller plants at the end of it.
The hike to the top of the Baru Volcano, back and forth (up and down), makes a total of 27 km. The excursion can be made a camping trip setting up tents, a camp fire and having a nice dinner just before reaching the top, or it can also be completed without dedicating a night to rest. The choice is yours but for several reasons we suggest the camping option as you will definitively enjoy the experience a lot more. For both options a bilingual guide and all the necessary gear is provided.
