Great place to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. Add some margaritas and drinks to that order!

Restaurant - Casco Viejo - Fonda Lo Que Hay

We love this amazing restaurant that brings casual Panamanian meals to Casco Viejo.

Hike - Cerro Ancon

The climb up Ancon Hill (Cerro Ancon) in Panama City takes only 30 minutes. The incline is quite steep but it is gradual and on a paved road. This is a leisurely climb suitable for kids, dogs, and hikers of all abilities. The path leads you up to a fence that is sometimes open and sometimes not. Don’t be deterred just walk through the hole of the fence.

Hike - Parque Metropolitano

Parque Metropolitano is located less than 5 km (3.2 mi) from Albrook Mall and was once part of the Panama Canal Zone. The trails vary in length and difficulty. Most of the trails (with the exception of Los Momótides which is a loop) connect to other trails. Trail lengths range from 0.7 km (0.4 mi) to 1.1 km (0.7 mi). All trails are easily marked and identifiable.
