Gamboa Rainforest Resort is a treasure buried in the wet and steamy jungle where the Chagres River meets the Panama Canal in Gatun Lake. All the qualities of civilization in a primeval world. Getting to grips with the forest all around is not easy. I rode the Teleferico aerial tram through the canopy to the top of a nearby hill, then a guided hike in the dripping forest took me to an observation tower above the canopy for a breathtaking view over the rainforest to the Chagres River below. On the way back, glimpses of colourful birds included parrots and hornbills and the chatter of the jungle creatures was incessant.
