The Volcán Barú (also Volcán de Chiriqui) is the tallest mountain in Panama and is 3,474 metres (11,398 ft) high. The last major eruption of the volcano was about 500 AD. There are reports, and some evidence, of a minor eruption around 1550 AD. However, deep in the earth, beneath your feet, the molten rock of the earth's interior still transmits heat upward through sold rock to ground water which has penetrated to that depth. This extremely hot water then forces its way upward through fissures and fractures, warming rocks and water as it goes. Where the hot water can escape at the ground surface, a hot spring is formed.
The Caldera Hot Spring, is a spring that is produced by the emergence of geo-thermally-heated groundwater from the earth's crust.
There are 3 hot baths, of varying temperatures, at the Caldera Hot Springs. Ample time is provided to lounge in the hot spring, lavish your body with volcanic mud, bake in the sun, and rinse off in the cool waters of the Chiriqui River. Iguanas, Jesus Christ Lizards (named as they can run across water), Toucans, and an occasional boa can sometimes be spotted.
Travel the countryside on ancient Indian trails. Saddle up and head out from the Caldera Spring for a casual ride through the lush mountainside. Your horse knows the way, so you can enjoy the sun in your face, the wind in your hair, and maybe a Toucan overhead.
This tour includes all the sites from the Caldera Hot Springs expedition, and an hour+ horseback riding.
Exclusive Wildlife Exploration to private, remote estates and wildlife sanctuaries. Our 4x4 Land Cruisers will pick you up at your hotel and drive you to locations, off the beaten path, where few others, have dared to explore. All explorations have been custom designed for Boquete Mountain Safari, by our Panamanian Guides. We have chosen the best locations to see the Resplendent Quetzal, Howler Monkey, Agouti, White Nosed Coati, and Pygmy Squirrel. Less common, but sometimes seen; Puma, Three-Wattled Bellbird, Jaguarundi, Kinkajou, and Mexican Porcupine. Abundance of animals and birds is seasonally dependent. Please tell us what level hiker you are, so we can design your trip to make it exciting and challenging.
