Parc del Turó del Putxet

Parc del Turó del Putxet sits atop one of Barcelona's smaller hills, its terraced paths and stairways climbing a former quarry to a summit with panoramic views over the city. The terrain is rocky and uneven rather than manicured lawn, which some visitors find disorienting with young children but others embrace as part of its rugged charm. With a 4.4 rating, it's clearly appreciated by those who make the climb, even if it's less of a flat, casual stroll than Barcelona's larger parks.
