Discover
Costa Blanca and the real Spain. You will be amazed at the wonderful mountains
of the South Eastern Sierras with its flower, forests and raw nature where
easy access and good weather guarantees a memorable experience. Initially
a short walk to start the week, map reading skills, pacing and mountain
awareness will be discussed. The course will spread its efforts throughout
the area of the South Eastern Sierras. Whenever possible a two day trek
will be arranged. You will spend one night away from Finestrat trekking out from the village
and over the mountains to stay at another pueblo for the night. You then
journey back taking another route, finally arriving back at your home
village. This allows you to visit some of the more remote areas, small
pueblo's (villages) and valleys.
The occasional easy
scramble will also be undertaken where you will learn how to use a 'walkers
rope' as security and how to 'find' your way up the more difficult terrain.
An opportunity to
descend a limestone gorge will also be given. This will depend on the
weather which is prevailing at the time.
The
ratio of student for theses courses will depend on the type of terrain
covered during the week.
