Overview
Cerro Turega is an epic trail with an intermediate/advanced difficulty level.
The panoramic views of the Pacific, the provinces of Coclé and Panamá Oeste are spectacular. The distance to travel is 6 km through the tropical forest that covers the hill. Before reaching the 3 peaks that make this place famous, we will pass steep and slippery terrain, which adds difficulty to this experience, making it an activity for lovers of challenges and adventure. For the more experienced hikers, the mountain has different trails that can lengthen and make the journey more difficult.
