The Jungle Eco Reserve is a 14 hectare reserve protecting the Panama rain forest along Lake Gatun. Guests can enjoy staying over in one of our two gazebo style campsites. The price quoted is for the Lake View campsite on a "bring your own tent and food" basis. We can also provide you with one or more tents and related equipment and with meals for extra charges as listed on our website. Each campsite is suitable for up to four 2-person tents under a covered roof. One is on the lake and the other one has a view of the lake. The property contains 2 kilometer of stone step trails, so visitors can enjoy observing the animals and rich vegetation of the jungle up close. The reserve is ideal for families and nature lovers. On the property one can view more than 400 species of birds. It contains an arboretum with detailed information on 50 different types of trees. The reserve is the ideal location from which to explore Lake Gatun by canoe or go fishing by row boat. It is only a short boat trip to the Embera Quera native people communities. The jungle and the lake are spectacular by night. With our guides we organize special night trips.
Due to the fact that we have only two gazebo campsites for a total maximum of 16 people, we can give full individual attention to our guests and make sure they have a wonderful time. We enjoy seeing families around a camp fire singing songs. We love to share the excitement if our guests see on a day trip or night trip animals they have never seen before. There is nothing as nice as cooking for our guests the super fresh fish they caught in the lake. It is a pleasure for us to help organize for our guest a barbecue for their friends. We are proud if our guest are fully relaxing in the beautiful nature away from the busy city life.
From the Jungle Eco Reserve it is a short drive to the amazing Gatun Locks of the Panama Canal and the historical sites of Fort San Lorenzo and Portobelo.
