Collserola Natural Park

The Serra de Collserola massif rises up over Barcelona Metropolitan Area, almost touching the city, a much-loved and immensely valuable natural area and great privilege for the huge population that lives around these mountains to enjoy. Collserola is a well-preserved, 8,000-hectare natural area in which you’ll find forest, plants, flowers and wild animals. 

Collserola is also a place for discovery and learning, a place for meeting and for leisure. The final goal is to promote environmentally-friendly and sustainable use of the reserve whilst also conserving the natural heritage it contains.

Since 1987, Collserola has been managed under a special protection plan, and the environmental objectives and concerns behind this plan were recently reinforced when the area was given the status of a Natural Park.

PortAventura Park

PortAventura is a theme park and a resort in the south of Barcelona, in Salou, Tarragona, Spain; on the Costa Daurada. It attracts around 4 million visitors per year making it the most visited theme park in Spain. PortAventura Park is also the 6th most visited theme park in Europe. The resort also includes Costa Caribe Aquatic Park and six hotels. It is the biggest resort in the south of Europe.

In this park people can have fun in different ways – they can go to a lot of attractions, which is the most common way to spend the day. Nevertheless people can see the shows that are made every day. Now we are going to explain how everything works in the park:

The park is divided in different parts and each of them has a theme. They are Mediterrania, Far West, México, China, Polynesia and Sésamo Aventura.




MEDITERRANIA:

It is the main entrance area of the park. It reproduces a typical coastal town in Catalonia featuring a big lake in which people can enjoy shows at some points of the day.

The attractions:
Furius Baco

Furius Baco – which you cannot lose. It is one of the best attractions that the park offers. Its top speed is 135 km/h! Moreover, it passes over the lake.


Port de la Drassana: one of the boat ride station of PortAventura which takes visitors from the Mediterrania area to the Chinese area.

Estació del Nord: One of the three stations of the Portaventura’s railroad attraction, which can take you to further parts of the park.

Shows:
Sésamo Parade (for children)

Welcome

FiestAventura: the lake’s show. Impressive!

Sésamo Parade Special Light: during July and August only.



FAR WEST:

This part of the park is themed as an old wild west town and features many western buildings and sculptures. It has 9 attractions, which makes it the biggest area in the park. It is home to these thrill rides:


Stamipida: a dueling wooden roller coaster. It is the third largest roller coaster in the park.
Stampida

Tomahawk: a junior version of Stampida.

Silver River Flume: a traditional water flume.

Grand Canyon Rapids: a whitewater tub raft adventure along the Grand Canyon. 



                                                         MÉXICO:

This area is themed on pre-Columbian Mexico, Mayan Mexico. It features temples, statues and a Great Piramide that is the entrance to the Gran Teatro Maya, the biggest show zone of the park.

Some attractions:
Hurakan Condor, from the top

Hurakan Condor: a drop tower ride operated by a cable lift. The ride provides a beautiful view at the top, just before plummeting! It is one of the most famous attractions – and personally the scariest one!


El Diablo – Tren de la Mina: a mine train with various small tunnels. The top speed isa round 60 km/h.

Seripiente Emplumada: if you don’t get dizzy easily you should try this attraction. It is a spinning ride.


Templo del Fuego
Some shows:

Templo Del Fuego: it is a walk-through attraction which runs every 30 minutes during for a certain period of the park opening hours. It is the most famous show of the park.






CHINA:

It is one of the most crowded parts of the park – and one of the biggest theme lands of the park. It is themed in the same style as the Great Wall of China.

Some rides:

Dragon Khan: It is one of the most famous roller coasters of the park. If you go to PortAventura you totally have to take ride on it! 

Shambhala: This roller coaster beats 3 European records, as it is the fastest (134 km/h) and talles hyper coaster in Europe (76 m tall) and has the longest drop in Europe at 78 m (2m underground). You may be intimidated at first by its height, but you HAVE TO take a ride on it!

Tea Cups: you can also enjoy this typical and amusing attraction.
In this picture you can see Dragon Khan (red) and Shambhala (blue and white)


Some shows:

Los misterios de Angkor

Generations forever.


POLYNESIA:

It is different from the other rides in the park as it is a more laid back area with less thrilling rides. It is one of the smallest themed areas – but very beautiful.


Some attractions:
Tutuki Splash
Tutuki Splash: a water ride themed along an erupting volcano – recommendable!
Sea Odyssey 4D: it is a dynamic cinema themed as a submarine. It takes you to a short journey to the bottom of the ocean.







SÉSAMO AVENTURA:

Themed to the Sesame Street characters, this area is aimed for the little ones. It is colorful and perfect for the younger visitors.




These were the most popular attractions and shows of the different parts of the park. Now we are going to explain you other parks that are part of PortAventura.

FERRI LAND:

It is an area themed to the Italian sports car brand. It includes new rides and a hotel. It will be a separate park from PortAventura Park.



COSTA CARIBE AQUATIC PARK:

It is a water park adjacent to PortAventura Park. It includes 16 attractions and slides. It is themed to the Caribbean, with beaches, palm trees, and Latin and reggae music.







How to get to PortAventura Park?

It has two airports within 30 minutes of it, including Reus Airport. There is a train station for PortAventura which has connections to Barcelona and Salou.




We truly recommend PortAventura Park. We have gone several times and we never get tired of it! If you have time and you are ready for it, you totally should go!! Moreover, there are some prestigious hotels and places to stay inside the park. If you want more information or you want to get the tickets, click HERE
