The Lost Waterfalls

Some of the most famous and breathtaking waterfalls in Panama are known as the Lost Waterfalls. You can spot the Lost Waterfalls by journeying along their namesake trail, the Lost Waterfalls Trail. This trail is located in the Chiriquí Province, around the perimeter of Volcán Barú National Park. It is a moderate to difficult hike through lush virgin cloud forests. During the hike, you’ll have the opportunity to view three of Panama’s most stunning waterfalls. Truly a sight to behold, they’re as beautiful as they are powerful.

El Chorro Macho

El Chorro Macho is an impressive 35-meter (115-foot) waterfall located in Anton Valley, Panama. At the base of the breathtaking cascades, you’ll find a mystical natural lagoon where visitors can swim and fully immerse themselves in the beauty of the falls. This waterfall is easily accessible. You will need to cross a few suspended rope bridges and take a short walk through a beautiful cloud forest.

San Ramón Waterfall

The San Ramón Waterfall is nestled on the right side of the Caldera River in Los Naranjos, Chiriquí, Panama. This momentous waterfall is roughly 50 meters (164 feet) tall. Part of what makes the San Ramón Waterfall one of the top waterfalls you have to visit in Panama is its accessibility. You can reach these powerful falls by car, and you can even view them right from the road. So if hiking isn’t for you, then you can still see them!
