Panama Rainforest Discovery Center
A canopy tower and birding paths make Panama Rainforest Discovery Center a focused Gamboa wildlife visit. The 175-step climb offers a different perspective on Soberanía forest.

Keep exploring Panama City with our travel partners.
Climbing into the canopy changes the scale of birdwatching: you can scan at treetop height instead of only along the forest floor. The paths and feeders below provide quieter opportunities for observation. Treat this as its own nature stop near Gamboa, with enough time to wait for wildlife rather than expecting sightings on demand.
What to look for
A rainforest observation tower and birding paths
The tower lifts visitors into the canopy while paths around the center support slow wildlife observation.
Useful to know
The tower has 175 steps; use the lower paths and feeders if a climb does not suit your group.
