Reviews

Best playground we found in 4 days in Barcelona. Big hill / slide situation for the bigger kids, while my 3.5 year old was into the tunnel and balancing boards. Seemed very popular. One big pro: it's next to a quiosc (La Canalla) with a bathroom (critical) and snacks/drinks (vermut for me, fanta for the kids).
