• Very little shade across the open lawns, so bring hats and water in summer and come in the morning or late afternoon
• Pump track and skate park sit close to the Vasco da Gama Bridge, so bring bikes or boards
• Footbridge over the Trancão carries walkers and cyclists on into Loures for a longer ride

Parque Tejo is a long stretch of lawns and paths along the Tagus estuary at the northern tip of Parque das Nações, running under the Vasco da Gama Bridge. Kids can ride the pump track, watch or join the skaters at the graffiti-covered skate park, and cycle the riverside path. There is space for soccer, plus padel courts, and the estuary edge is good for birdwatching.
