Spain Asturias Residential - Schools Adventure Activities - Outdoor Pursuits - Peak Pursuits

This residential is a fantastic 5 day adventure for 13-18 year olds.  The principality of Asturias in Northern Spain is little known to people in the UK and offers a unique outdoor activity and cultural experience.

Based within the beautiful Trubia Valley, rock climbing, canoeing, cycling and walking are all within 30 minutes of your accommodation.  This trip encompasses more than just outdoor pursuits.  It offers an experience of great educational value by incorporating cultural elements like music, food, language and history.  Participants are also brought into contact with conservation issues and the importance of the natural environment.  The Trubia Valley hosts a bear sanctuary where efforts are being made to save the endangered Brown Bear in Northern Spain.  

Day One – Arrival and Teambuilding
Your party will fly into Asturias during late afternoon where you will be welcomed and transferred by coach to your accommodation in the Trubia Valley.  This journey is about one hour duration.  Upon arrival at your accommodation the rules, boundaries and plans for the week are established.  After dinner you will enjoy an evening of teambuilding activities.
