Soberania National Park

Located 15 miles from downtown Panama City, this scenic park features two hiking paths called el Charco in Gamboa and Pipeline Road, both known for excellent birding and wildlife viewing.

Reviewed By camillecoleman - Melbourne, Australia

Great park to visit when staying in Panama City. Take a uber/taxi for $20 to the start of Pipeline Road that is on the far end of the town Gamboa. Here you can walk the dirt rocky track towards the discovery centre or beyond. We found it very easy to stop plenty of animals along the way including a beautiful three toed sloth!! Catch a bus from Gamboa or hitch a ride with a local driver to get home again (local driver will be approx $8-10).

Wonderful ... Big Ships and Wildlife. Cruise the Canal along big ships and see lots of wildlife — crocodiles, lizards, and monkeys. Lots of interesting sites along thee banks.

Monkey Island

Located in Lake Gatun, this island gets its name for the white-faced monkeys that inhabit it.

Reviewed By O9772BOrobertc - Los Angeles, United States

We traveled with John from Panama Day Trips on their Lake Gatun Eco Tour. We began with a fresh morning on Lake Gatun motoring along next to giant container ships as they made their way across Panama. John was knowledgeable about the animals which were occupying the little man-made islands and it was a treat to see the Tamarin monkeys come out of the trees to have a look at us. Cynthia at Panama Day Trips office was so helpful in setting up our transportation. Truly a must see for a trip to Panama!

Altos De Campana National Park

Panama’s first national park, this one was created thanks to a landscape created by the now-extinct El Valle de Antón volcano. Avid bird-watchers will love it here, as will visitors who want to take in the incredible views from the park’s lookout spots.

Altos del Maria

Reviewed By Verodegonz

This is a private community, so I recommend to rent a house through Airbnb, the views from here are amazing, here you will find walking trails along the river, with waterfalls and “Charcos” to swim in the river, tables for picnic ????. I really liked this place, nature is beautiful in here ❤️.
