If everything goes according to plan, Mijas Pueblo will have its callisthenics park for outdoor exercise within a month. This recreational area is currently under construction on Tamisa Street in Mijas Pueblo. It will allow for outdoor sports, and it is a request made to the Mijas Town Hall's Youth Department by young Mijas people.
It will be the fourth park of its kind in the town, designed to work out using the athlete's body weight. While the other three are two in La Cala and one in Las Lagunas, the future park is being built opposite the TRH Hotel, leading to the Silk Park garden. This space has arisen from the collaboration between municipal areas. The Councillor for Parks and Gardens Laura Moreno (PSOE) states: "The Youth Department has been receiving feedback and suggestions from the Villa de Mijas High School AMPA (Parents' Association). Also, through meetings with young people participating telling us what they need".

The idea came from a Mijas youngster, Leo, just nine years old, who has come along with his mother, Humildad Ríos, to see how the works he helped to get underway are developing. For Humildad, "nobody can say better what the youth of the town needs than the teenagers themselves. And my son, although he is only nine years old, feels like another. He saw that this kind of facility was lacking here".
The park is already arousing excitement among the Mijas Pueblo teenagers, who are eager to try out the facilities. As in the case of Amaru Jiménez, who said, "I think it's a great idea as this type of facility allows us to exercise anytime.
