Boquete, Panama Nature & Hiking Group

Information

TAKE A HIKE! STAY ACTIVELY FIT!

Discover the very best "off the beaten path" nature trails in the Boquete area. Every Thursday & Saturday, join us for a trek on the beautiful trails in Boquete's highlands and rainforests. You can email me at jerechica@gmail.com

Day Hikes and Stayovers for 2013:

1. Quetzale Trail beginning in Boquete staying the night in Guadalupe, hiking back the next day.

2. Potrerillos begin in Boquete Day trip.

3. Santa Fe in Veraguas, overnight stay.

Explore. Dream. Discover.

The group leader is Jere McCormick. I will take you on some of the most beautiful back road trails Boquete has to offer. Some trails are easy, some are at a steep incline, other trails are just rugged hikingsuch as; over tree stumps, or in the rainforest, that never seem to dry out. I highly recommend wearing hiking boots for these hikes.

Did you know there are over 30 trails to hike in the Boquete area? To this day we are exploring new trails. So, hike off the beaten path and get to know the true Boquete.

Also if, you are interested in taking amazing photos, off the beaten path, I can take you on a separate walk at a much slower pace. Let me know in advance.

Are you able to walk 2.5 miles or 4 km in one hour on a sometimes steep incline? All of our walks or hikes in Boquete are always on an incline. This is Boquete with hilly terrain.

Saturday's walk only lasts for two and half hours more or less we meet at different at 8:00a.m..

Thursday's hikes are longer and at times on rough terrain up to three and half hours sometimes five. We meet at 8:30a.m. at different locations. A hiking stick is recommended and hiking boots for all hikes.

Send me an email if you are interested in joining us on a morning hike.

Comment by Jere Chica on May 15, 2013 at 7:31am: Ten more days!

Comment by Jere Chica on March 12, 2013 at 5:50pm: Hiked with the group to Potreillos last Thursday.It was about seven hours of hiking round trip beginning in Palmira Abajo at 8 a.m. to Potreillos Arriba, then back to Palmira at 4:30 p.m. YIKES! But we made it, long, hot in the sun, cool wind cooling me off, felt winded sometimes, very thirsty towards the end. The next day no aches, practiced yoga to get the joints back into place, and I felt GREAT. You gotta love it to be able to do it!
