- One of the most popular plans in the destination is the hike from Sapzurro to La Miel. It is a marked trail where you must climb about 200 steps to reach the top. Here you will find a military post where you will be required to show ID - a passport is not necessary - to enter La Miel, the first region of Panama bordering Colombia. At the top, you can see the Colombian coast on one side and the Panamanian coast on the other.
- We recommend visiting Capurganá from April to October if your vacation allows. In January there are many visitors to the destination and you may not be able to fully enjoy the tranquility of the place.
