Volcan Baru National Park

Travel Guide

Panama, Baru National Park, Baru Volcano
Panama, Baru National Park, Baru Volcano
The volcano Barú is the highest mountain in Panama (3477m). 
It is possible to take a cab to approx. 1700m and hike the rest (13km). It takes around 5 to 6 hours to go up. When the weather is good you can see the Pacific and the Carribean.
Even if tour operaters tell something different: you don't need a guide! It's long and steep but not difficult.
tip: start at midnight (with a good lamp) so you can watch the sunrise.

It wasn't what I expected. A room where I was asked to take my shoes off when inside. Contactless check-in was a hassle. Got a question - ask the Virtual Assistant. I don't have a problem with new trends, but when it comes to stays, I prefer the human contact.

Minimalist design and great views. Add to that a well equipped kitchenette complete with the things that you need (salt, pepper, sugar and coffee) and the cleaning supplies necessary to tidy up afterwards. Well done Casa Reina staff!
