Camino de Cruces Trail
Camino de Cruces is a demanding historic rainforest traverse, with an 11 km section from the Soberanía park office toward the Chagres. It requires registration and return transport planning.

Surviving cobbled stretches recall the colonial route that carried goods across the isthmus. The full 11 km section involves uneven ground and stream crossings, so this is a planned hike rather than a casual park stroll. Register with the park, go with a route-aware guide, and arrange a boat pickup at Venta de Cruces before starting.
What to look for
Stone paving survives in stretches of the old cross-isthmus trail.
The forest route reaches the Chagres River at Venta de Cruces.
Useful to know
Register with Camino de Cruces or Soberanía National Park before the tour.
Arrange a guide and a boat pickup at Venta de Cruces for the one-way 11 km route.
