The Children's City

A visit, an afternoon of shopping or a stay over several days in Pontevedra makes it an ideal place if you do your trip withchildren. Pontevedra is part of the network of The city of children, a project of the Italian psychopedagogue Francesco Tonucci that includes 34 other Spanish towns. A commitment to public spaces in the cities dedicated to the youngest children so that they can play and learn freely, after having almost completely eliminated the presence of cars in the city centre. In Pontevedra, children play in the street, a scene that is no longer common in other cities. In addition, both in the city and in the surrounding area there are many activities designed for children and above all for the whole family.

Nature, fun and outdoor sports

To enjoy with the family through games and fun routes through the historic centre of the city and the Island of Sculptures, a natural space about 10 minutes walk from the center, we propose The pirate’s treasure route and Discovering the Illa do Covo. The first one goes through the streets of the city through four friendly characters that will take you through several locations, where you will find QR codes that will guide you in the search for the treasure of the pirate Benito Soto. Visit us at our tourist office and get the treasure map or download it here! On the other hand, Discovering the Illa do Covo is a fun treasure hunt in which, through various clues offered by the QR codes, you can solve the enigma hidden in this natural space on the banks of the river Lérez. A unique proposal to get to know its artistic and natural heritage. To start the adventure you can also get this map in our office.

During the summer season there are Paddle Surf routes that run along the Lérez river and allow you to get to know this natural environment and the city in a different way. Aimed at people of all ages, from 5 or 6 years old, and guided by a monitor, they also have an audio guide in several languages to discover the history, trades, sites, buildings, legends, flora and fauna.
