Itinerary description
We hiked the Sendero los Quetzales from the Ranger Station on the Boquete side (Chiquero) to the Ranger Station on the Cerro Punta side (Respingo) with a detour to the Mirador de las Rocas and then returned to the start. The trail is well marked and there are no route finding issues. There is a steep section in the middle (almost like a staircase) but the trail is well built in that section. There is one river crossing on stones. About 4 meters across and never more than 40 cm deep should one step in the water. The park entry fee was $5 per person. Wikiloc for some reason is showing a faster time than we actually walked. It was about 3.5 hours up, and 3 hours back. Although the Park Service says the distance is 7 km each way, it is actually 8 km each way.
