After being picked up from your hotel in Panama City, embark on a day trip to El Valle de Antón, nestled high in the Panamanian mountains at the base of the world’s largest inhabited volcanic crater. This tranquil village, once a crater lake, became a settlement for indigenous people from the nearby mountains thousands of years ago.
The tour includes several stops, allowing you to choose which sites to visit and how long to spend at each. Consider exploring La Piedra Pintada, remnants of El Valle’s pre-Columbian culture, featuring undeciphered petroglyphs beneath the crater formation known as La India Dormida. Hike to the summit of the Sleeping Indian for breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and valley.
Other options include visiting the El Nispero Zoo and the Orchid Center, or simply unwinding in a hammock with a glass of Panamanian beer (note that entrance fees, food, and drinks are not included). Revel in the spring-like climate, enjoy the local bird songs, and savor the fresh mountain air.
On weekends, the village becomes lively as Panamanian visitors arrive to explore El Valle’s arts and crafts market, where locals and members of the Kuna Yala community offer their vibrant goods.
At the conclusion of the tour, you will be transported back to your hotel.
