Cerro Hoya National Park

Veraguas, Panama

Cerro Hoya National Park, also known as Tres Cerros, is located at the southwestern tip of the Azuero Peninsula, along the coast of the Panamanian Pacific in the Azuero Mountains. It is shared between the province of Los Santos and the Mariato district. The park boasts over 30 species of endemic plants. The most common tree species within the protected area include mahogany, espavé, guayacán, cuipo, oak, Spanish cedar, ceiba, and barrigón.

The park has been surveyed to record more than 95 bird species, including the endangered scarlet macaw, the painted parakeet native to the southern Azuero region, the mighty king vulture, the osprey, and the mangrove hawk. Among the mammals, alongside significant populations of white-tailed deer, agoutis, and painted rabbits, you can also find the jaguar and the ocelot.
