5 Things You Should Do This Weekend At Malta’s New Tal-Mitħna Park
Looking for something different to do this weekend without spending a fortune?
Malta’s newly inaugurated Tal-Mitħna Park, located between Mqabba and Qrendi, could be the perfect spot to enjoy some fresh air and switch off from everyday life.
Once an abandoned quarry and illegal dumping ground, the area has been transformed into a 7,000-square-metre green space following a €2 million regeneration project.
With 300 newly planted trees, over 3,200 shrubs and several recreational facilities, here are five ways to make the most of your visit!
1. Enjoy A Relaxing Walk
Put on your walking shoes and explore the park while enjoying some fresh air and getting your steps in.
2. Take A Break From Your Phone
Put social media aside, enjoy your surroundings and make the most of some screen-free time.
3. Organise A Picnic
Pack some snacks and drinks, bring your friends or family and enjoy a relaxing afternoon outdoors. Just remember to clean up afterwards!
4. Bring Your Dog Along
The park features a dedicated dog area, making it a great place to take your four-legged friend for an outing.
5. Find A Quiet Spot To Read
Bring a book and enjoy some peaceful reading time in the park's dedicated reading corner.
Families with children can also enjoy nature-inspired play areas, a ping-pong table and an interactive bug and bee hotel.
The regeneration project also involved removing around 20,000 cubic metres of construction waste, transforming a neglected site into a welcoming community space.
Sometimes, the best weekend plans are the simplest ones!
