El Palmeral de Alicante - park with palm trees, rivers and lakes

At the entrance to Alicante from the west along the coast is an elongated park with over 2,000 palm trees. Here you can walk, run or play or just relax on a bench in the shade of a palm tree. There are hiking trails under the shade of palm leaves, open spaces with exercise equipment, bridges over rivers, artificial waterfalls and small idyllic lakes. All on a strip that is 320 meters long and 40 meters wide.

The park is the remains of La Finca El Carmen, which in its time had over 7,000 palm trees on a much larger area. The farm was bought in 1944 by Alicante municipality, which eventually used most of the site for industrial construction. Fortunately, a good solution has been achieved for the small strip that has been preserved along the coast. Here there is a lot to see and experience for the whole family in a small area.
