Timeline
13:30
Pick up a coffee at Esquina Cafe. It is the closest option to the park and opens early, making it a reliable stop before you head out.
13:45
Arrive at Parque Padre Hurtado. The park is open Tuesday through Sunday. Spend the first ten minutes finding a quiet spot near the lake or under the large green expanses to watch the afternoon activity.
14:45
Walk over to Crepe Station for a snack. It is open until 18:00, so you will have plenty of time to enjoy a crepe while the late afternoon light is still good.
15:30
Return to the park for a final stroll. Use the barbecue grills area as a reference point if you want to see the local sports events or cultural gatherings that often take place there on weekends.
Local tip
The park is most popular on weekends. If you are visiting on a weekday, you will have the space almost to yourself. Check the route if you need to navigate from the cafe to the park entrance.
