Volcan Baru
Volcan Baru is the tallest mountain in Panama, an old sleeping volcano covered in green forest. On a clear morning from the very top you can see both oceans at once.
Adventurers love climbing it in the dark to watch the sunrise from the summit high above the clouds. Seeing the Pacific and Caribbean at the same time is a rare and magical treat.
Two Oceans at Once
Volcan Baru is one of the few places on Earth where you can see two oceans from a single spot. You need a clear day and an early start to catch the view.
A Sleeping Volcano
Long ago this mountain was a fiery volcano, but now it rests quietly and grows a green forest. Its rich soil helps the nearby coffee and vegetables grow well.
Cool Mountain Air
Because it is so high, the top is chilly and sometimes covered in mist and clouds. Climbers wear warm jackets even though the beaches below are hot.
