Location

The Youth Park is located in the urban area of Reboleira, in the parish of Venteira, municipality of Amadora. It is strategically positioned behind the Amadora Secondary School, which reflects its conception as a focal point for socializing and leisure for the local community and visitors to the area.

Its location allows it to be easily integrated into broader pedestrian routes, as it enables connection to other existing walking trails, such as those along Avenida D. José I and Avenida D. Carlos, inviting active exploration of the urban surroundings.

A Contemporary Green Space

Opened in September 2015, the Youth Park represented a significant addition of green areas to Amadora's urban fabric. Covering approximately 6,000 square meters, it was designed to offer a refuge of tranquility and nature, a true "oasis" in the heart of the city.

Its creation demonstrates a continuous investment in enhancing public spaces, seeking to balance urban density with the need for natural and leisure environments for residents and visitors.

Outdoor Activity and Well-Being

This park invites the practice of various physical activities, serving as a dynamic hub for well-being. It features large grassy areas suitable for relaxation, picnics, or casual play.

For those looking to stay active, the park incorporates two cardiofitness circuits, equipped with a total of twelve stations, functioning as an outdoor gym accessible to everyone. Additionally, its layout includes a dedicated walking track, ideal for invigorating strolls or a light jog in the park's tranquil environment.

A Stage for Socializing

The Youth Park is also a space that promotes outdoor socializing and culture. Its design features an amphitheater, naturally framed by an extensive lawn.

This central element offers an informal stage for a variety of moments, from simple contemplation of the landscape to relaxed gatherings. The presence of strategically distributed urban furniture complements the park's functionality, creating multiple points for rest and interaction, reinforcing its role as a meeting and leisure spot for all ages.
