The Town Council of Castellnovo has received a subsidy from the Generalitat Valenciana to develop the «Castellnovo Smart Área: Smart and Connected Tourism» project, aimed at fostering innovation and sustainable tourism in the municipality.

The initiative, part of the «Territorios Innovadores» 2026 Boost Plan, includes the expansion and adaptation of the motorhome area located in the La Mina natural site. This area will feature intelligent systems for management, automated access control, digital reservations and payments, as well as tools for efficient resource monitoring and management.
Furthermore, the project will enhance visitors' connection with the municipality by integrating hiking and cycling routes, natural and cultural heritage, and local businesses into specialized digital platforms, thereby promoting them.
Through these actions, Castellnovo takes another step in its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and the development of rural tourism. This initiative is supported by the Generalitat Valenciana, through the relevant Ministry for innovation, under Program II of support for pilot innovation projects within the «Territorios Innovadores» 2026 Boost Plan.
