Several years ago, a project was started to improve the area around the Rio Chillar and provide a picturesque walkway down to El Playazo beach, the mouth of the river.

The walkway follows the Rio Chillar from Parque Verano Azul (by the Supersol Supermarket and the petanca courts) down to El Playazo beach. There is a cycle path and there are benches along its entire length. Wooden bridges enable you to cross from one side to the other.

For nature lovers, there are many interesting things to see as you stroll along the walkway, such as numerous types of fruits, birds, flowers and other plants.

I have so far seen the following wildlife along the way: Blackbird, Grey Wagtail, Pied Wagtail, Iberian Chiffchaff, Pigeon, Blackcap, Common Chiffchaff, Sparrows, Scarlet Dragonfly and Mediterranean Gecko.
