Cambrils’ newest park is made for kids, offering educational and recreational opportunities for all ages alongside relaxing spaces under shady pines.
Pinaret Park in northern Cambrils is a state-of-the-art green space, perfect for helping kids get their daily exercise or simply watching the world go by. Buy coffee from one of the nearby shops and cafés and lounge beneath its trees. Sit on one of the manicured lawns, feeling the world warm up as the sun rises in the sky. Spread out a map of the town on the picnic tables to plan a day in the sun or arrive in the evening to relax before enjoying the town’s nightspots.
Attend a concert at the amphitheatre and get refuge from the heat under the leaves and needles of the adjacent shady area. Numerous paths snake through the different areas and offer an educational look at the Mediterranean biome. Linger in the central area, where several planters contain examples of the area’s most famous and distinctive plants with signs giving their names and other information. Learn about the agriculture of Cambrils and the region or just breathe in the scents.
The name Pinaret comes from the natural pine forest that existed here before the park was created and still remains. Walk between the trees and find a convenient picnic table. Pause for a meal of pa amb tomaquet (tomato bread) and butifarra sausage, perhaps accompanied by a local beer or a bottle of wine. Let kids play on the different playground areas, which contain equipment for a range of ages. Visit the paved public square, where events offer opportunities for learning and relaxation. An arbor of solar panels creates shade here.
Pinaret Park is about a 15-minute walk from the town centre of Cambrils and the main train station. Walk here in 25 minutes from the port. Limited parking is available on adjacent side streets. The park is open for visitors from late morning to evening and closes later in summer months.
