WHAT TO VISIT
Parks and Gardens
Parque de la Fiesta del Árbol
This park extends from the fairgrounds and is home to the 68-meter-tall Depósito del Agua, which is planned to become a public viewpoint and tourist center.
Parque Abelardo Sánchez
Known as “El Parque”, it’s the green lung of Albacete. Its 11 hectares include pine forests, playgrounds, squirrels and ducks — ideal for families. The Museo de Albacete is located within its grounds.
Parque de los Jardinillos
One of the city’s oldest parks, dating back to the 19th century. Its entrance recreates the historical iron gate of the Feria. Highlights include a pond with water lilies, a concert pavilion, and the Caseta de los Jardinillos, a key venue during the Albacete Fair.
Parque de la Pulgosa
Located just outside the city, this 40-hectare pine forest is perfect for weekend outings. It offers multi-sport courts, a skating rink, a BMX track, and grassy fields for picnics and football.
Parque Lineal
Once the route of the old railway line, this long park now stretches across Albacete with themed areas and historical references like the Puente de Madera traffic signal and a restored locomotive. It features a scale model of the Solar System, turning it into an open-air museum.
