Discover the Natural Wonders of Cerro Ancon Reserve

Getting There

• Car

  From Eastern Panama, take Route 1 (Pan-American Highway) heading towards Panama City. Follow signs for Panama City and stay on the highway for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on your starting point. Once you reach the outskirts of Panama City, continue on Avenida Balboa. Look for the signs directing you to the Parque Natural Metropolitano, as Cerro Ancon is adjacent to this park. You can use a GPS navigation app to guide you to the exact address: bvtvvvvb vvv hv v tyv v, XC4X+QQQ Vacamonte, Panamá. Parking is available at the entrance of the reserve. Note: Fuel costs will vary based on your vehicle's mileage.

• Public Transportation

  To reach Cerro Ancon from Eastern Panama, you can take a bus to Panama City. Look for buses labeled 'Panama' or 'Panamá Centro' at your local bus terminal. The fare is typically between $3 to $5. Upon arrival at the Albrook Bus Terminal in Panama City, transfer to a local bus (typically a minibus) that goes to the Metropolitano Park area. This may cost an additional $0.50 to $1.00. Inform the driver or conductor that you are heading to Cerro Ancon. The bus will drop you off near the entrance to the reserve. Make sure to check the bus schedules to ensure you have a return trip planned.

• Taxi or Rideshare

  If you prefer a more direct route and convenience, consider taking a taxi or using a rideshare app like Uber from Eastern Panama to Cerro Ancon. This option will be more expensive, with fares likely ranging from $30 to $50, depending on your exact location and traffic. Simply provide the driver with the address: bvtvvvvb vvv hv v tyv v, XC4X+QQQ Vacamonte, Panamá. This option is ideal if you're traveling with a group or have heavy bags.
