Prior Spring River Beach

Negative experience: Looking at the reviews, I expected to find something more habitable. As a duck pond, it's very nice, even beautiful, but I believe it is not suitable for swimming; the sandy area was covered in duck droppings and feathers, the water reaches up to the knees, and most of the water is occupied by reeds. Not much shade. That said, it's an exceptional place for birds, but not for humans.

Fantastic experience: I adore Burgos in general and this area in particular. Very beautiful, it has a restaurant, restrooms, children's areas, and paths to get lost. You can go on foot or by car.

Positive experience: Nos acercamos por las altas temperaturas para darnos un baño a la tarde. Los niños sí se lo dieron. no tiene profundidad ninguna y el suelo es barro al entrar en el agua. la arena no era muy atractiva para tumbarte. Eso sí, nada de suciedad. al caer la tarde había muy buen ambiente de gente paseando y en bici por el carril bici. Eso nos pareció muy atractivo. Como otro punto a favor es el parking amplio que hay y los bares junto a este.

Positive experience: Últimamente algo abandonada, el entorno natural es fantastico, cercana a la Cartuja, Fuentes Blancas y con acceso peatonal y carril bici desde Burgos capital, mesas bancos y asadores completan el lugar, el cual aunque lo suficientemente tranquilo es muu frecuentado por gentes de toda edad.

Fantastic experience: Un paseo precioso, por un bosque, tiene mesas, camino peatonal al lado del río y camino por medio del bosque, carril bici de 4 km, playa fluvial, tiene puesto de primeros auxilios, parquecitos infantiles ...

Fantastic experience: Es muy amplio, ideal para pasear a las mascotas. ‍♂️‍♂️‍♀️

Negative experience: Looks nice but no dogs allowed

Negative experience: Lamentable sitio, no se ve cuidado. No permiten perros en pleno siglo XXI y por si fuera poco no te puedes bañar al no ser apta para el baño.

Fantastic experience: Un sitio super chulo para pasear y pasar el día ,con restaurantes muchos sitios verdes columpios toboganes puedes ir con niños perros. ....

Positive experience: Es muy bonito para pasear, aunque el río esta descuidado con mucho cañizo

Positive experience: Fuente del Prior river beach, on the Arlanzón River, in the Fuentes Blancas park. An artificial sandy river beach that originated in the 1980s. Lifeguard service during the summer season, showers, first aid kit, reading point... A beautiful place to sunbathe, but be careful with swimming because the water quality is not good, although at least the air is breezy.

Negative experience: There is no room for the ducks in the grass, nothing is taken care of, and don't swim because you'll drown. If a child falls, you won't get them out of there. My dog fell, and I had to get into the water up to my navel to rescue him, and then the mud below looks like quicksand. Just wait and hope nothing happens. The town hall is filled with lazy people. Then they cut down all the trees and remove tables, parks for children are outdated, in short, I don't know who gets my taxes. It should be reported or let's see if a good flood comes and puts it in the main square.

Positive experience: The beach has seen better days... there is sand, but the shore is full of reeds and mud, so you can only dip your feet, the surroundings are beautiful, all nature, the attraction is the ducks at the dam, the area is great for taking a walk, playing something on the lawns, or having a meal because there are picnic tables.

Fantastic experience: Nice natural setting in the city features benches, fountains, shaded areas, a pond with various birds, and nearby a couple of restaurants for snacks or to eat from the menu. It has everything to spend a pleasant morning in nature.

Negative experience: Abandonment and deforestation, that is what you will find here. p.s.: those of you who say the water is dirty, a tip: DO NOT STOP FEEDING THE DUCKS.
