Potrerillos, Chiriquí

Potrerillos is a small, laid-back town in the Chiriquí highlands, just a short drive from Boquete. Visitors come for its peaceful atmosphere, working coffee fincas, and natural attractions like the Los Pozos de Caldera hot springs. The surrounding cloud forests offer excellent hiking, birdwatching, and views of the Barú Volcano. Unlike bustling Boquete, Potrerillos feels more rural and authentic, with fewer tourists and a slower pace of life.

Don't miss

• Soak in the natural hot springs at Los Pozos de Caldera, set along a river with pools of varying temperatures.
• Tour a local coffee farm like Finca Dos Jefes to see the bean-to-cup process and sample fresh brews.
• Hike the Sendero Los Quetzales trail for a chance to spot resplendent quetzals and other cloud forest wildlife.
