El Valle de Anton - Panama

Most striking of all are the panoramic mountain views which surround the town, which sits inside the one of the world's largest inhabited volcanic craters. Visitors can take advantage of some excellent hiking routes, cycling and adventure sports, as well as watching the area's abundant birdlife and sampling some of the great local restaurants.

Matagalpa - Nicaragua

Often referred to as the "Pearl of the North" and a center of Nicaragua's coffee production, Matagalpa sits surrounded by hills and mountains in the northern part of the country.
