Pipeline Road located in Soberania National Park, with access to both forest and wetland birds, is considered by many to be one of the best birding locations in all of the tropics. In a single day it is possible to see up to 300 species. Due to the nature of the inhabitants of the forest it is not uncommon to encounter army ant swarms attended by antbirds.  Mixed flocks are frequent flyers.

    We want to thank Sendero Panama so much for putting together an absolutely perfect honeymoon for David and I. We fell in love with the country, every place we visited and of course the amazing people. Carlos and Christian were both fantastic and really helped make our Panama experience so special. Thank you so much... all your recommendations were perfect and the attention to detail was impressive. We can't wait to come back and visit again soon!

    Thank you for a wonderful, very pleasant day of birding with Christian and Mica. It could not have been much better. It was the highlight of my trip.  Harry, the SOB (spouse of birder), enjoyed it too. He talks about it more than I do.  I added 24 birds to my life list with you. I am thrilled!

Itinerary

The many birds found within the park on Pipeline road include: trogons, wrens, puffbirds, hummingbirds, hermits, and motmots. Forest-falcons are commonly heard and often seen. Exploring the nearby wetlands one can often find Rufescent Tiger-herons, White-throated Crakes, Wattled Jacanas, Purple Gallinules, and many other aquatic species. But birds are not the only animals one encounters when exploring this area of Panama. Many other abound, including the monkeys, sloths, iguanas, frogs, toads, and rodents such as the agouti, paca, and capybara.

Accompanied by one of our certified interpretive guides, a day of birding on the Pipeline Road is so much more than just looking for and identifying birds.
