Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly
Boquete in the Chiriquí highlands is Panama's outdoor adventure and specialty coffee hub — the Lost Waterfalls trail, the Quetzal Trail (one of Central America's best birding hikes), and the white-water rafting on the Chiriquí River are all excellent solo activities that naturally group travelers. The coffee farm tours are superb. Boquete has a significant expat community and very good English.

Best Nature in Boquete for Solo Travelers
Showing 1 spot in Nature
Sendero Los Quetzales
Nature
A cloud-forest trail of about 9km through Volcán Barú National Park between the Boquete side and Cerro Punta, known as one of the best places in Central America to spot the resplendent quetzal (most likely February to May). The path is muddy and steep in parts, so go with a guide or check its current condition with park rangers first.
