This amazing hike on the Pipeline Trail goes into remote virgin cloud forest surrounding the perimeter of Volcán Barú National Park. The trail parallels a gorgeous creek that meanders through the valley in the highlands. The Pipeline Trail is the best maintained, and features old growth trees, butterflies, and rare species such as the Resplendent Quetzal, sloths, and monkeys. There are more than 220 bird species native to the area, including the elusive Resplendent Quetzal. Or The Three waterfall hike The Lost Waterfalls Trail parallels Quebrada La Mina, a gorgeous creek that meanders through the ridges and valleys above Boquete, creating spectacular waterfalls and eventually spilling into Rio Calder
Various Trails can be chosen for fitness levels and abilities. Short sections of the trail are steep uphill climbs. Please let us know your fitness and hiking ability. Trip details may change due to severe weather or unforeseen events. Wildlife spotting is highly likely, but not guaranteed. The Pipeline Trail is our MOST RECOMMENDED trail for our half-day hikes. It winds through the cloud forest and passes through two micro-climates, has various small wildlife, and is one of the best areas for the chance to see the Resplendent Quetzal Or The Lost Waterfalls Trail is quite steep at the beginning so requires a higher fitness level. It has three gorgeous waterfalls (the third being difficult to get to). The first waterfall is easily accessible with a good flow into a canyon (no swimming) and makes for a perfect photo-op. The second waterfall, further up the trail, has great water flow into a small pool, however it is not recommended to go under the waterfall due to falling rocks. The third waterfall requires a more strenuous trek and is not always accessible due to time constraints and trail maintenance. The trail is very nice with gorgeous jungle scenery
