Volcan Baru National Park

Travel Guide

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.

Upon arrival, she was quite rude and flatly refused to answer basic questions about our reservation, ...
