파나마시티의 보석
The park has five main trails, all of which is well maintained and marked. Each individual trail possesses its own unique features so feel free to choose one that suits your interest the most.
- Mono Titi Road: Ascending to the top of Cerro Cedro (Cedar's Hill), the trail offers breathtaking views of Panama City. It is also the widest of the trails as it used to be a main road. Thanks to its width, you can go for a run or ride bikes through the trail but be prepared for a climb because this one is mostly uphill. The road ends at Cedar Hill Lookout Point and you can stop by the "Los Trinos" Lookout Point along the way for a rest. Don't miss the small Geoffroyi's tamarin monkey on the way.
- Sendero La Cienaguita Trail: This trail is the oldest among the five and the entrance can be found behind the security station. It collides with the Mono Titi Road trail as it ends near the top of Cedar Hill. In comparison, it is longer and more strenuous hike but the trail is filled with all types of wildlife for optimal visual enjoyment. You might want to stay quiet and especially attentive to the scenery when hiking this trail so you can enjoy nature at its best.
- Sendero Las Caoboas: With an amazing view over the city and the astounding bay area, this trail is an excellent place to hike. However, you might come across some steep portions that could be difficult to manage if you are not physically prepared.
- Roble Trail: This trail is easier to hike as it is short and flat. Named after a big Roble tree located behind the Bonsai Garden, it takes about 25 minutes to hike and is absent of any major terrain challenges for hikers.
- Los Momotides Trail: Like Roble Trail, the terrain on this trail is also flat and easy to hike on. It'll take about 45 minutes to get to the end and if you take time to observe the wildlife along the way, you are sure to see a very color bird called "Blue-Crowed Momot". The trail is actually named after this creature.
The Metropolitan National Park is one of the most beautiful sightseeing of Panama City where you will find Latin America's only municipal wildlife reserve. It is a remarkable well-preserved dry tropical forest in a walking distance from the modern city. Living in Panama City just keeps getting better, doesn't it?
