Gafos Park is a green corridor that runs along the Gafos River, winding through Pontevedra's outskirts. Once neglected, the river and its banks have been revitalized into a haven for wildlife and a recreational space for residents. The park's paths take visitors past restored mills, wooden bridges, and lush vegetation, with benches for quiet contemplation. Birdwatchers can spot herons, kingfishers, and other species, while the sound of flowing water creates a calming soundtrack. It's a hidden gem for nature lovers.

- Spot grey herons and kingfishers along the riverbanks from the wooden viewing platforms.
