Boquete, the charming highlands town where coffee farms and hikes reign supreme, is about to face a temporary inconvenience. Starting Monday, the entrance to Boquete will be closed for road works, making it necessary to find alternative routes. Whether you're a seasoned expat or a digital nomad, here's your guide to navigating the closure.

Use the Wilson Bridge road as an entrance and the El Vigia cutoff road to exit the town. These routes will be your best bet to avoid any delays. The closure is just for Monday and Tuesday, so plan accordingly to ensure you don’t miss out on your daily adventures.

While the closure might be a bit of a hassle, it's important to remember that these works are crucial for maintaining the roads and ensuring a safe travel experience. Take this time to appreciate the beauty of the highlands, perhaps with a leisurely hike or a visit to a local coffee farm. The air here is crisp, the light filters through the dense canopy, and the aroma of fresh coffee is a constant reminder of why you chose to call Boquete home.
