A Giant Adventure in the Heart of Valencia

Nestled in the heart of Valencia's stunning Turia Gardens lies a playground of mythical proportions: Parque Gulliver. This extraordinary attraction brings Jonathan Swift's classic tale to life, featuring a massive, 70-meter-long replica of Lemuel Gulliver tied to the ground. But this is no ordinary statue; his body, clothes, and hair are ingeniously formed into a labyrinth of slides, ramps, and climbing areas. Children and the young-at-heart can become Lilliputians for a day, scrambling up his giant legs, navigating the folds of his coat, and gleefully sliding down his flowing hair. It's an imaginative world of adventure that sparks creativity and provides hours of active fun, making it an essential and unforgettable stop on any family trip to Valencia.

Planning

Historical Context

Parque Gulliver lies within the Turia Gardens, a vast park created in the former riverbed of the Turia River. After a devastating flood in 1957, the city diverted the river and transformed the dry riverbed into the 9-kilometer-long green space that is the heart and lungs of Valencia today. The park was commissioned in the late 1980s as a unique centerpiece for this new urban park.

Photography Tips

  • Use a wide-angle lens to capture the immense scale of the Gulliver figure
  • Get low to the ground for dramatic shots looking up at the giant
  • Switch to a fast shutter speed to capture sharp action photos of kids on the slides
  • The best light is during the golden hours of early morning or late afternoon, which also helps avoid the harshest crowds and heat.

Insider Tips

  • Go early on a weekday morning to have the park almost to yourself
  • The slides can get very hot in the summer sun; test the surface before sliding down
  • Bring a small backpack for water and snacks that you can leave safely on the sidelines
  • Explore the wider Turia Gardens after your visit; there are fountains, orange groves, and other play areas nearby.

Absolute highlight for the kids!

We booked a family bike tour of Valencia, and the stop at Gulliver Park was the best part for our 7 and 10-year-olds. They were blown away by the size of it! Our guide gave us 45 minutes to play, which was perfect. Seeing their faces as they slid down Gulliver's hair was priceless. A must-do for any family visiting Valencia.

Geniale! Un parco incredibile!

We didn't know the park was free and almost fell for a fake ticket website. Luckily we found a city tour here that included it. It was so much more than just a playground. It's a piece of art! The kids were ecstatic and exhausted in the best way possible. Highly recommend going with a tour to understand the context of the Turia Gardens.

Fun but very busy

The park is fantastic, a true wonderland for children. Our tour got us there around 11 am and it was already packed. The slides are fast and fun, even for adults. My only advice is to wear long trousers - I got a bit of a friction burn in shorts! Booking a tour helped us bypass any potential queues if there had been entry limits, and our guide was great.

Magique pour les enfants et les parents

Quelle belle surprise au milieu des jardins de la Turia ! Nos enfants ne voulaient plus partir. C'est immense, original et très bien entretenu. L'inclure dans une visite guidée de la ville était une excellente idée car nous avons pu nous détendre pendant que les enfants jouaient en toute sécurité. Un souvenir inoubliable de Valence.

Best playground in the world?

My kids have officially declared this the best playground ever, and I think I agree! It's incredibly creative. We visited as part of a family-focused tour of Valencia booked through this platform. The convenience was unmatched. The guide shared fun facts about Gulliver's Travels on the way, which made the experience even richer for the older kids.

Unique and impressive scale

The size of this playground is astonishing. It is a very clever use of public space in the beautiful Turia park. My children enjoyed it very much. It was part of a city tour we booked, which was a good way to see many things in one day. It can be crowded, so be prepared to wait for popular slides.

Perfect family activity

We spent a wonderful hour here during our private Valencia tour. The kids were in heaven, and it was a great way for them to burn off energy between seeing historical sites. The park is clean and felt very safe. A brilliant concept that you won't find anywhere else. Booking a tour that included this was the best decision we made.

¡Increíble para los niños!

Visitamos el Parque Gulliver como parte de un tour en bici por el Turia. Fue el momento favorito de mis hijos en todo el viaje a Valencia. Se sintieron como liliputienses escalando al gigante. Muy seguro y divertido. El guía nos dio tiempo de sobra para jugar. ¡Totalmente recomendado!
