Take your kids, including the furry ones, for a dose of fresh air and sunshine at this linear parkSpending time outdoors with your family is not just about finding new ways to entertain yourselves—it is also about fostering genuine connections, creating meaningful experiences and building lasting bonds.

Consuelo Park, First Philippine Industrial Park’s linear park, offers a safe and fun natural environment for families to disconnect from the distractions of work and screens and reconnect with one another. With its variety of spaces to explore, learn, get active or unwind, the park has something for everyone.

Here are five activities the entire family can enjoy at Consuelo Park.

1. Have a picnic. Consuelo Park offers a spacious open area that is perfect for picnics. Imagine sharing a delicious meal surrounded by greenery—a delightful experience for everyone. Bring a cozy blanket and savor quick bites like sandwiches or biscuits and cold drinks. As you enjoy your time, help keep the area clean by disposing of waste in the trash bins conveniently placed around the park.
2. Connect with nature. Whether the goal is to explore nature or decompress, Consuelo Park’s 1.1-kilometer trail surrounded by lush foliage offers the perfect escape. Take a relaxing walk and enjoy the diverse range of plants that thrives in the park. Let the stunning views captivate you, but don’t miss the subtle symphony of nature—the gentle rustling of leaves and the chirping of birds. Lucky guests might even catch a glimpse of colorful birds darting from tree to tree. Along the way, capture special moments with family selfies or feed the koi fish at the serene Japanese bridge.
3. Bond with pets. While you’re enjoying the serene beauty of the park, why not include your furry friends in the fun? Consuelo Park is a haven where pets can roam, play and enjoy the outdoors. Pack their favorite toy and spend quality time playing fetch or get some exercise together as you stroll through the park. To ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone, keep your pets on a leash and clean up after them.
4. Break a sweat. Treat Consuelo Park as your outdoor playground. Kick off a round of classic family-friendly games like tag or more vigorous activities like catch or Frisbee. For those seeking more adventure, bring your bikes or scooters and enjoy a fun ride along the park’s scenic trail. Prefer something more relaxed? Try light exercises like jogging or practicing yoga.
5. Spark your imagination.  Give your family a well-deserved break and let nature ignite your creativity and inspiration. Bond over sketching vibrant plants and scenic landscapes found around the park or let your kids fill their coloring books while you create your own masterpiece. Alternatively, unwind as a family by enjoying the soothing sounds of nature while diving into a good book.

Consuelo Park is open daily to the public from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. For inquiries and bookings, or if you’re interested in hosting an event or scheduling a photo shoot at Consuelo Park, reach out at commercial. leasing@fpip.
