Parque Etxebarria, Urban park in Begoña district, Bilbao, Spain

Parque Etxebarria is an urban park set on elevated ground with winding pathways lined by around 130 trees throughout the landscape. The location offers views of the Abando district and Old Town while providing children's play areas, sports facilities, and picnic spaces for visitors.

The park was established in 1990 on the site of a former steel foundry, marking part of Bilbao's transformation following the city's industrial decline. A red brick chimney from the foundry remains as a reminder of what once stood here.

The grounds become a social hub during Bilbao's Aste Nagusia festival each summer, filling with music, food vendors, and celebrations rooted in local traditions. Visitors notice how the entire community gathers here to mark this important season.

The park is located near Casco Viejo Metro station at Camino del Polvorín 1, making it easily accessible from the city center. The grounds are well-equipped for visits of varying lengths depending on whether you want to play with children, enjoy sports facilities, or simply walk around.

The park features an artificial lake with water games where visitors can cool off on warm days. This recreation area stands out as a modern addition to the landscape of the revitalized industrial site.
