In search of a legendary bird


Some days ago, still in Chiriqui we walked "El Sendero de los Quetzales", one of the most popular trails through the jungle, in the natural park Volcan Baru. The trail runs 8km between Cerro Punta and Boquete. It was quite muddy and we had to cross a river and had to stumble over some trees that had fallen because of the rain.

Unfortunately we didn’t see any of the legendary "Resplendent Quetzal"s. However, parts of the trail lead us through impressive jungle. Even if at the time it felt like a pain sometimes because of the mud, looking back now we think it was a really nice trek.
