How are the roads in Volcan and Cerro Punta, Chiriqui Province, Panama? Do I need a four wheel drive in Volcan and Cerro Punta, Chiriqui Province, Panama?

The roads in Volcan and Cerro Punta (for the most part) are all in good and excellent condition. You can move around the towns without the need of a four wheel drive.
However, if you own a farm or plan to visit a place located high up in the mountains where the roads have not been paved, you will need a 4x4. This is specially true if you go to the extensive land areas of agriculture and milk farms (one of the main economic activities of this area in Chiriqui).

A four wheel drive might also be needed if you are going just for sightseeing or hiking. Not all roads will be in good condition, specially during rainy months.

For most of the roads in Volcán, especially inside the town of Volcán, a four-wheel drive is not necessary, but to get to my house here in Volcán, you absolutely need a four-wheel drive because I live in an atypical road approximately 10 minutes outside of Volcán. Some of the outlying streets in Volcán feature a rock road, or even a dirt road, like the street where my home is. (Home and coffee farm, Boquete, Panama,...
