Welcome to Pinar de los Manantiales, Torremolinos


Pinar de los Manantiales is one of the best places in Torremolinos to escape the heat and enjoy some time in the shade of a pine forest. Popular with local families, the park is a great spot for a picnic, barbecue or simply letting the children run around while the adults relax. During the summer, particularly at weekends, it can become very busy, so arriving early is a good idea if you want to secure one of the barbecue or picnic areas.

Information on the Pinar de los Manantiales

1. Overview

Pinar de los Manantiales is a large pine-covered recreational area in the Los Manantiales part of Torremolinos.

Unlike the busy beaches and town centre, the park provides a much more relaxed and natural environment, with the shade of the pine trees making it particularly attractive during the hot summer months.

It is a popular meeting place for local residents, especially families, who come here for picnics, barbecues and outdoor activities.

The park is also part of an area of Torremolinos associated with the town's natural springs and historic water mills. The nearby Jardín Botánico Molino de Inca provides a more formal garden experience, while Pinar de los Manantiales is more informal and geared towards recreation and enjoying the outdoors.

2. Location & Address

Pinar de los Manantiales is located in the Los Manantiales area of Torremolinos, close to several of the town's family attractions.

Address:
Camino de los Pinares
29620 Torremolinos, Málaga, Spain

It is approximately:

  • 5 minutes' walk from Jardín Botánico Molino de Inca
  • 10 minutes' walk from Aqualand Torremolinos
  • 10 minutes' walk from Crocodile Park
  • 20–25 minutes' walk from Torremolinos town centre
  • 25 minutes' walk from Calle San Miguel

The concentration of attractions in this area makes it particularly useful for a family day out.

3. Opening Times

Pinar de los Manantiales is an outdoor public recreational area, but access to individual facilities such as barbecue areas can be subject to local regulations and seasonal restrictions.

The park is best visited during daylight hours.

During the summer months, the area can become particularly busy, especially at weekends and around public holidays.

If you are planning to use one of the barbecue areas, check the current local regulations before visiting, as the use of barbecues can be restricted during periods of high fire risk.

4. What You'll Find at Pinar de los Manantiales

The park provides a mixture of natural surroundings and facilities for spending time outdoors, including:

  • extensive pine woodland
  • shaded areas
  • picnic areas
  • barbecue areas
  • benches and tables

The shade provided by the pine trees is one of the main attractions, particularly during the summer when temperatures in Torremolinos can become very high.

It is much more of a local recreational area than a traditional tourist attraction, which is part of what makes it interesting.

5. How to Get There

By car:
Driving is probably the easiest way to reach Pinar de los Manantiales, particularly if you are carrying food and equipment for a picnic or barbecue.

Follow the road towards Los Pinares, Aqualand and Jardín Botánico Molino de Inca.

On foot:
The park is within walking distance of Aqualand, Crocodile Park and Jardín Botánico Molino de Inca, although the walk from central Torremolinos involves an uphill section.

By bus:
Local bus services operate in the wider area, although visitors should check current routes and stops before travelling.

The park works particularly well as part of a walking route linking several of the attractions in the Los Manantiales area.

6. Parking

There are parking areas around the Los Manantiales and Los Pinares area, although spaces can become limited when the park is busy.

During summer weekends and holidays, arriving early is advisable if you want to park close to the park and secure a good picnic or barbecue area.

There is also parking around some of the nearby attractions.

  • Check current fire restrictions before using a barbecue.
  • Take plenty of water, especially during the summer.
  • The pine trees provide valuable shade, making this a good place to escape the midday heat.
  • Bring a picnic if you want to make the most of the area.
  • Combine the visit with Jardín Botánico Molino de Inca.
  • Consider making this the starting point for a full family day in the Los Manantiales area.

  • Jardín Botánico Molino de Inca
  • Aqualand Torremolinos
  • Crocodile Park
  • Molino de Inca

9. Overall Experience

Pinar de los Manantiales is not somewhere you visit for a major tourist attraction or landmark. Its appeal is much simpler — it is a place to slow down, enjoy the shade of the pine trees and spend time outdoors.

For families, it can be particularly useful. Children have space to run around while adults can enjoy a picnic or barbecue, and the fact that several of Torremolinos' other attractions are nearby means you can easily combine a visit with Aqualand, Crocodile Park or the Botanical Garden.

It is also a good example of the more local side of Torremolinos. During the summer, you'll often find local families making use of the park, particularly at weekends.

Our tip: If you're planning a summer barbecue or picnic, arrive early. The locals know how popular this place becomes, and the best shaded spots and barbecue areas can disappear quickly. For a family day out, consider combining Pinar de los Manantiales with the Botanical Garden and one of the nearby attractions — you can make a whole day out of an area that many tourists simply drive past.
