- A major new £10 million theme park, São João da Mata adventure park, has been proposed for Castanheira de Pera in central Portugal.
- The park aims to attract more visitors to the region, which is already known for its large wave pool, Praia das Rocas, and nature trails.
- Planned attractions include a zipline, a treetop adventure course, an alpine coaster, rock climbing, trampolines, and a go-kart circuit.
- A 1,000-metre cable car is proposed to connect the town to the park and the existing wave pool, offering direct access and scenic views.
- Local authorities hope the park will generate significant positive economic and social impact, creating jobs and revitalising local businesses, though an opening date has not yet been announced.
