Itinerary
The Chagres Challenge
Chagres National Park
17 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeStart at 5am after your picked and taken in an all-terrain vehicle from your hotel to the remote village of San Cristobal. After enjoying a light breakfast, visit a campesino survival agricultural farm in the Chagres National Park. Next, hike for about 2-hours up to Rio Piedras. This area is a Chagres River tributary, where you will get into your rafts and begin to float downstream, (Class II-III rapids) floating into the untouched jungles of the Chagres National Park. From late February through early June you might have to hike all the way to the Chagres River (which takes 3-hours) because Piedras River might be to low to raft on. After lunch, continue rafting further downstream passing an impressive granite canyon with some white water action, and ending just before encountering Madden Lake where you met by a "piragua" (native wooden canoe equipped with outboard motor). Ride in the piragua further downstream to visit an Embera Village at river bank where you will camp.- AccommodationsTent Camp by river shore.Food And DrinksDinnerLunchBreakfast

Comunidad embera Tusipono
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedAfter breakfast, meet the villagers and learn about their customs, beliefs and legends. These natives migrated to Chagres River banks more than 20 years ago, where they found the same habitat they were so familiar with in the Darien Jungles. The Embera will display their crafts, dances and they'll invite you to their huts to appreciate the constructions and living habits of hut life. Go to nearby areas ,in which you will appreciate their cultural adaptation to the jungle and river and enjoy the ride. At the end of our journey, a "piragua" will take you to the nearest road where a driver will be expecting you and ready to bring you back to civilization, and to your hotel in Panama City around 3pm.- Food And DrinksLunchBreakfast
