Altos Del Maria - Page Three
Live In A Garden In Panama's Mountains
.
Within a quick drive of Altos are a wide range of activities and resources. Some of Panama's best known beaches are only 30 minutes away from Altos del Maria: Punta Chame, Gorgona, Coronado and Punta Barco.  In Coronado, there is a championship 18 holes Golf course, Par 72, with 7,092 yards of "greens" and "fairways" designed by Tom & George Fazio. It is considered one of the finest in all Latin America. 

Also, in Coronado, 19 km. (12 miles) away, along the Pan-American Highway, there are supermarkets, restaurants, gas stations, handicraft markets, hardware stores and more. In the city of La Chorrera, the area's largest settlement, residents of Altos del Maria will find shopping centers, sport facilities, cinemas, restaurants and supermarkets. The town is approximately an hour's drive from the project. 

Near the entrance to Altos is a mini-market that has goods similar to what one would find in a 711 store. There is also a police station near the entrance with police on duty 24 hours a day.

Altos del Maria is the habitat of the Harpy Eagle, Tody Mot Mot, Dull-mantled Antbird, Eye-ringed Flatbill, Buff-throated Saltator, White-tipped Sicklebill, Green Hermit, Sunbittern, Bay-headed and Emerald tanagers, deer, sloths, monkeys, mammals and golden frogs. (The Golden Frog (Atelopus zeteki) is an endangered species found on the mountains adjacent to Altos del María. Pre-Colombian indigenous peoples of the distant past revered the frog and crafted gold and clay talismans (huacas) in its form. Local legend holds that chieftains of the Guaymí tribe would ascend the Pacific slope to the mountains of Picacho, Gaital, Pajita, and Caracoral (in El Valle de Antón) annually as a sacred rite. This legend evolved into the myth that the Golden Frog would transform into gold huacas upon death. Hence, anyone seeing or possessing the frog alive would be guaranteed good fortune.)
