The facilities will include a lake, an open air theatre, a cycle track, a skate park, a climbing wall, and an open air theatre. There will be children’s play areas, and games tables for dominoes and chess.

20,000 Trees Being Planted
The first phase of construction will take 18 months and includes the creation of an artificial lake and planting more than 20,000 trees. Mayor Josele González says “This is without a doubt one of the most ambitious projects in our municipality, a unique space and a benchmark on the Costa del Sol that will be located in one of the main expansion areas of Mijas. It will be the main leisure space for residents and visitors, who will be able to enjoy all kinds of activities and culture in the open air. It will be a space that will undoubtedly surprise everyone who has heard about this project in recent years”.
