Parque de Atracciones Monte Igueldo

This is a quaint vintage amusement park. It has seen better days and is a little shabby. As it was the end of the summer many of the attractions were closed. There is a hotel which is popular as it has unparalleled views of San Sebastián and the Bay of Biscay. There is a funicular railway made of wood which is lovely. A great place to see the spectacular views.

Amazing little park with reasonable prices and amazing views. Definitely worth a visit if you drive by. Very nice and different rides are available, and the views are another level. We love this place at St. Sebastian. #travelwithtentbox

YES YES YES... this is a fantastic place to be, and an awesome experience. The prices are all very very reasonable, with a 2-way trip on the funicular for only 4.75€, and all the rides are pay-per-ride, ranging only from 2.30€ onwards. The roller coaster was only 3€. The view... PRICELESS. so YES... PLEASE come, even if you come alone, it is fun too! Weekend, long queues, but it keeps moving, so just a little patience is ok.

Absolutely loved our visit here. It's a steep climb, so I would highly recommend the cart to the top. Sorry, can't remember the official name for it. So many exciting and fun things to do for both children and adults. As a group of adults friends, we particularly like the rollercoaster, the horror house and the water ride. The bar at the top had incredible views and the Strawberry mojito was just delicious 😍

We visited on a Wednesday in mid-August, arriving around 11 a.m. There was already a line at the entrance, but it moved quickly. Entry to the park costs €2.50 per person, with separate fees for each attraction. Parking was straightforward, and the park has roughly ten attractions in total. We chose the boat ride, which cost an additional €2.30 per person for about a 90-second experience. It opened at 11:15 a.m., and we waited at least 30 minutes in line. The wait was worth it—offering stunning views over San Sebastián.

Absolutely love it! Smaller theme park but the bigger rides and the side scenery water slide was definitely worth the 2.30€ and 2min ride for memories. Super cheap rides and games! I would recommend when you buy tickets for the "ride going up the mountain" get a up and down ticket to avoid long lines because there is only one going up and another one going down, so during busy times you will have to wait to get another ticket going down if you chose this route.

I would say it’s a vintage park, it’s cool because it’s old so don’t except super modern rides or to actually feel scared at the house of terror. But it’s a fun hangout. It’s cheap to get in, but then you pay for every ride. There’s a couple of places where you can have a drink and some snacks, and the view is amazing.

My family LOVED this place! Old school charm and tons of fun. Not ridiculously expensive either. Highly recommend the roller coaster and the boats. Heck, it’s all fun. And what views! Some of the best ever. My only criticism is charging half a Euro to go to the restroom. Really? Evidently that’s done in some places in the EU but wow what a scam. Even little towns in the Basque Country like Lekeitio manage to have free restrooms. I still give it five stars because I sincerely hope this place will be there for future generations.

Came here on a weekday in the fall because we wanted to ride the funicular while in town. As we expected, all of the rides were closed, but to our surprise they still had some food and drink options open! We enjoyed walking around the mountaintop and taking in all the spectacular views of San Sebastian and the coast. We also enjoyed getting some spritzes at the bar and sipping on them with the ultimate view. Without the rides it's not a place you'll spend too much time, but still worth the visit for the views and a ride on the historic funicular. Would love to come back and go on some rides in the future.

Inexpensive and can't-miss tourist attraction! The funicular takes you to the top quickly, and the view at the top is incredible. Plus, if you want a glass of wine while you wait for the amazing sunset, it's super inexpensive. Yes, pleaseeee!

When you are in San Sebastián, this is a must see location! We went today while visiting the area, and loved our experience. We enjoyed our ride up the mountain. The views will leave you drooling as your jaw drop at the beautiful sights. Be sure to bring your camera and a jacket! (It gets windy at the top from the ocean, and it has perfect views for photos.) There is also a hotel at the top where you can get cafe con leche and relax on couches before heading back down. They accept cards and cash at this location.

Beautiful view at the top!! Take the funikular to the top and walk around. Be sure to bring your camera. If you have little kids, the amusement park at the top will be fun, but doesn't necessarily cater to adults.

This is a side of San Sebastian people don't talk about. If you're staying in the hotel nearby or you're under the age of 6 this might be for you. Pony rides, water rides, a carousel, and some other kitschy things. I dig the "Casa del Terror" and the totally baked hallucinating mushroom people.

Midway up the steep east side of Monte Igueldo, we waved to the descending funicular car in appreciation of their gravitational potential energy hoisting us up the mountain. Funicular physics aside, we made the three minute inclined journey to check-out the mountaintop amusement park and admire the panoramic views. Built in 1912, the funicular on Monte Igueldo is the third oldest cable railway in Spain. The round-trip ticket cost €3.10 and included entrance to the amusement park. According to our young-adult daughters, the amusement park was childish and antiquated, but the final plummet on the roller coaster was a worthy thrill. After a few rides and a bag of popcorn, they were ready to have a look at the view. From our lofty vantage point, the golden sands of La Concha Beach outlined the semi-circular La Conch Bay like the rim of a scallop shell. Shimmering in the distance, the iridescent San Sebastian earned its nickname as "The Pearl of the Cantabrian Sea". With the coastal views etched in our camera's memory cards, we boarded the funicular for our return to sea level. Midway down the mountain, we waved to the ascending funicular car; this time for their counterbalance keeping us from a free-fall into the station below.

Unlike some of the other San Sebastian attractions, you don't stumble upon the Funicular unless you go looking for it. I highly recommend that you do go looking for it! For three euros, you can ride the Funicular (actually an English word that means something like "crazy trolley") to beautiful views. The ride is not long at all but the views are so worth it. I took tons of photos at the top and enjoyed checking out the mini amusement park (with incredible views from the kiddy rides!). I also bought a diet Coke at the top and paid about 0.25 euros to use the restroom. If I'm back in San Sebastian, I'll ride it again!

The Funfair at the top of Monte Igueldo is unbelievably cheesy and overpriced. Even so, taking the funicular to the top was one of my favorite things we did in Basque Country. The style of the funicular building and the carnival itself are wonderful examples of Belle Epoque design, if you look past the grime. And the views! Holy moly...the views! It's worth your money just to ride up there and take it all in. Absolutely stunning.

A very so-so experience on the quiet side of San Sebastian. Close to our hotel and primed for anyone UNDER the age of 5. There are some good views here, but the rides and such are pretty infantile and mundane. The Casa Del Terror was like walking blindly in the dark with people jumping out at you. The water ride was equivalent to a bathtub with a few waves. The Swiss Mountain roller coaster ride was probably the best of the bunch and the saving grace for all the money we spent up there hoping to find an enjoyable time for us and the 8 year old. Happy Travelling!

This is one of the most beautiful settings for an amusement park I've ever been to. Apart from the great views and a fun walk up to the top of the tower, the park also has the world's only roller coaster made of stone, which was really incredible.

A cheap fun amusement park! The kitchy old rides are great. Maybe short and sweet but still fun experiences. Where else can you peer down over a cliff to amazing rugged coastline IN A DUCKY BUMPER BOAT?

This is where you have the classic view of the bay of San Sebastian. Generally there is a funicular that takes you up to the top, except on Wednesdays as we discovered. It is a little bit of a hike to get up to the top and some family is charging you to go up to the amusement park/hotel that caps the peak. We were there at the end of December, so everything was closed. Great view that is worth the detour.

Best view of San Sebastián. To get here, you need to take the funicular de Igeldo from Ondaretta Beach (there are signs for the funicular from Eduardo Chillida Pasealekua). The funicular is 2 euros and includes admission to the parque de atracciones. If you choose to walk up, you still have to take the funicular down, so you might as well take it up to the top of Igeldo.
