Cerro Azul is a mountain town that's a quick 40 minutes away from the bustle of Panama City. Resembling the Swiss Alps in terms of weather and scenery, this tiny town is perfect for a sudden weekend getaway. The ride takes visitors to an altitude of approximately 3,000 feet and offers stunning view of the valleys below. Along the way, visitors will come across an exuberant display of flowers such as large bougainvillea and orchids in varying colors and size. Outdoorsy visitors will love exploring the rivers and streams that cascade down to Chagres National Park.
