Public park that was an old almond plantation. The old almond trees have many holes. Nocturnal birds of prey nest and take refuge there.
The Almendral park is surrounded by urbanizations. Even so, the nearby pine forests serve as a refuge for nocturnal birds of prey like Kattugla and Eyrugla that use it to hunt. Also common are Grænspæta and various insectivores such as Grágrípur and Húsaskotta.

The area is especially interesting on spring nights. You can see almost all species of nocturnal birds of prey. The Kattugla, Náttugla, Eyrugla and the Úfur stand out. The Turnugla is very rare, as well as the Skopugla, which, if they appear, are expelled by the Kattugla. Although they are not birds, the carato dormouse and the ocellated lizard are usually present. It is a place with great diversity and abundance of orchids. It also houses Roman and 18th and 19th century archaeological remains. A very diverse place.
