About

The Lost and Found Hostel is Panama's only hike in jungle hostel, located in the cloud forests of Chiriqui­ Province, Panama.

Stunning views of Volcan Baru set the backdrop for this jungle lodge. Located in the Fortuna Nature Reserve, immerse yourself in nature by exploring the miles of trails inside the park or simply lounging in a hammock watching the hummingbirds visit at this majestic property.

We offer a unique and social housing experience, exciting tours, and many activities included in the price of your stay such as hiking and treasure hunts, and waterfall excursions. We have a varied menu for breakfast and lunch with vegetarian and vegan options. Every evening, at 6pm, we have a family dinner where all the guests get a chance to get to know each other. The social vibe continues into the evening in the jungle bar with good music, drinks and fun games. The bar is located away from the sleeping areas, so whether you are looking for a fun and social atmosphere or just to relax and recharge for your next adventurous day, there is something here for everyone.

Pros: the view when it stops raining, wildlife, hot shower & breakfast Cons: it was freezing & damp, my clothes smelled & were damp for days after. A previous guests dirty socks were on my bed. My bed was 5 inches from the door which jammed when opened, and there was a window behind my head where a bright light shone in all night. The dinner food is very basic & small portions (you can’t get food anywhere else & minimal cooking facilities). No lockers. Long hike up. I left a night early

Lost & Found is amazing!! Fabian treats you like family & is an absolute legend. The weather was horrendous when we came but we still had an enjoyable stay even though we couldn’t really do anything. The food is simple but in big portions so you get your moneys worth! Overall it’s definitely worth visiting, staying in the jungle with the bugs, birds & monkeys is pretty incredible… worth the drive & hike!!

Loved the experience, even as it rained from 1pm onwards. The food was simple but filling. There are a few meat options around if you are concerned about vegan only. Staff were excellent, more like friends during the whole stay!
