In Boquete, Panama you can safely experience the thrill of a zip-line canopy tour that can be compared to the most famous in the world. BOQUETE TREE TREK: 3 kilometers in total length divided into 11 different zip-line cables. You will glide through the trees and encounter a world unknown… a fascinating perspective of life that you’d never believed existed.
Tarzan, 21st century ! Who would have thought that a technology utilized hundreds of years ago by our indigenous people and later perfected by botanists and naturalists to observe and study the behaviors of wild creatures in their natural habitat, would be transformed into one of the most revered extreme sports.
A harness, an ultra-resistant steel cable and gravity are the only elements necessary to suspend and propel the "fearless rider" in this incredible "adrenaline rush".
Security Measures:
The equipment and the steel cables that you will use, have the capacity to resist many times the weight of a human, no matter what.
Glide through the treetops of century-old forests, high above the pristine rivers and waterfalls that make up the incredible collection of natural landscapes bordering the National Park La Amistad and the famous Baru Volcano.
This is a tour traversing a cloud forest of century-old trees and waterfalls where at anytime you may encounter fog and the gentle rain we call bajareque. The wildlife within the treetops is immense and varied making it possible to appreciate our native species of small animals and birds; with a bit of luck you may even get the chance to see monkeys and the famed quetzal. In addition, you can marvel at sight of the great variety of orchids and wildflowers that you will find throughout the area.
FACTS

- Boquete, Caldera
The highlands of Caldera, only 20 minutes away from Boquete, make an ideal destination for horseback riding. The rural countryside with its volcanic stone walls, golden fields and green rolling hills is very pleasant to explore riding in the company of a good horse and a couple of mates. There are miles and miles of open plains which are ideal for galloping and the horses naturally love it. The temperature is also a little less cool than in Boquete and it tends to be a bit drier giving you the opportunity to appreciate a different panorama
