RV Rental Bilbao, PV

Ready to get out and about in the great outdoors? Pack a picnic and head over to the hillside park of Parque Etxebarria, or Etxebarria Park. Try your hand at tennis or sit and let the kids play at the children’s playground. There are plenty of hiking trails to stretch your legs and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Bring your camera or phone and snap some gallery-worthy photos of the city of Bilbao from atop the hill.

Parque Doña Casilda Iturrizar, or Doña Casilda Iturrizar Park, is an excellent place to go for peace and quiet without leaving the city. Sit near the pond and enjoy the peacefulness of the water, or take off down one of the walking paths winding through the park. Many locals hang out at this park, chatting with the vendors peddling their wares or listening to a live band in the evening.

When looking for some fresh air and green grass, spend an afternoon in Jardines de Albia Lorategiak, or Albia Lorategiak Gardens. Sit in the shade on one of the many benches throughout the park and admire the abundant flowers and plants cultivated here. Take in the beauty of the statues and fountains scattered through the park. There's a snack bar if you don't want to tote your own drinks or food with you when you visit.
