Parque de La Grajera, Natural park with forest and reservoir in Logroño, Spain
Parque de la Grajera is a forest park in Logroño centered around a large reservoir surrounded by coniferous forests. The space includes walking trails, picnic areas, open lawns, and different habitats for plants and animals.
The reservoir developed over a century ago from a natural lagoon, initially created to supply irrigation water for the city's farmland. Over time, the site transformed into a public recreation space.
The park includes a section of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route, where visitors walk through the forest and connect with this meaningful spiritual path. People from around the world pass through this stretch to experience the heritage and spiritual dimensions of the journey.
The park sits roughly ten minutes from central Logroño and features parking and good bus access. Visitors find restaurants, outdoor dining spots, and shaded areas with drinking water throughout.
An environmental education center within the park runs weekend workshops on butterflies, water conservation, and recycling. The programs are open to all ages and teach hands-on lessons about local ecosystems.
