FOG
Old quarter and a coastal causeway

Walk Panama City from the Casco Viejo

Panama City pairs a restored colonial quarter on a peninsula with a skyline of towers and a long coastal path. FOG starts the map dark and clears only where you walk, and the seafront draws a clean curve between them.

The Casco Viejo

The Casco Viejo, the old quarter, sits on a small peninsula, a World Heritage site of colonial houses with balconies, plazas and churches, many restored. The Plaza de Francia, at its tip, looks out over the bay.

Its streets are small and easy to cover in a day.

Along the coast

The Cinta Costera, a waterfront park and path, runs from the Casco Viejo along the bay toward the towers of the modern city, a long walk with the sea on one side.

In the other direction, the Amador Causeway links three small islands with a path for walking and cycling, with views of ships waiting to enter the Panama Canal. The Biomuseo, designed by Frank Gehry, stands at its start. Ancon Hill has a trail to a viewpoint.

Heat

It is hot and humid all year, with a rainy season from May to December. Walk in the early morning or late afternoon.

The old quarter and the coastal paths form a long shape along the bay on the map.

Share the shape you walked

After a proper walk FOG can offer a walk card: the shape of the route you just covered in Panama City, ready to post as a square, a story or the bare shape. The lifetime card shows the area you have unfogged, the distance travelled and how much of the city you have lit.

It all runs on your phone with no account and no cloud. Choose kilometres in Settings, pick a fog colour (Midnight, Abyss, Violet, Ember or Slate) and a density, and walk. Exploring is free, and one purchase of FOG Unlimited opens every rank, every path and Google Timeline and GPX import.
