Parque Nacional Soberanía

Several howler monkeys seen on pipeline road, as well as iguanas, and 4 different tanagers - a very rewarding place to hike near the Gamboa area of the Panama Canal

Beautiful Rainforest, high biodiversity and very good maintained trails like Pipeline Road

5$ entrance fee, the park itself is pretty small, took about an hour

I signed up for a tour with Panamzing. It was great! Tour guide was great and I enjoyed the tour. As you can see from thevphotos we saw many animals. This tour included food in the food was great.

I went there with a tour, to see3 species of monkeys and also visit a village of an indigenous community. The Cappucin monkeys in the national park area did not have fear of human and would jump on our boat to get peanuts and fruits. The highlight of the visit was meeting the indigenous community village and learn about their livelihood.

We took an uber from the city to do a little hiking. It was tough to get info, since I think most users use tours. We hiked about 4 km out and back. It took about 3 hours since we kept stopping to look at things and take pictures. What we found out when we go there: There is no cost. At about 8 km, the trail comes to a T. You need to have a guide to go past this. There is a tower to see the levels of the rainforest, but you need a reservation to access it. On the way back when we had about 0.5 km left, we got cell service back and we could contact uber again. In early April, there were no mosquitoes. The trail is mostly shaded. We didn't see a lot of animals, but we did see an anteater climbing a tree.

Such a nice hike! We did not see any birds nor monkeys, but we heard them throughout the hike.

Loved it! One bridge is out, and I hauled a few pieces of litter with me on the way out. We saw a few snakes, and something like a crayfish. Great picnic spot.
