Our highly successful activity weeks will include the following activities:

Cycling

We cycle the Via Verde, along the paths and through the tunnels of a disused railway constructed during the Franco regime. The line goes from Olvera to Puerto Serrano, which is about 45 kilometres. It takes about 3 hours in total at a leisurely pace, stopping for lunch on the way. 3 or 4 of the stations on route have been turned into restaurants. The scenery is spectacular and the paths are good for cycling or walking.

Walking

There are many beautiful walks around this area, where interesting flora and fauna can be seen. Our experienced guide can take you walking in the national parks, down by the river, through the mountains, or along the flat planes.

Yoga

There are many ways of dealing with discomfort and pain within us. We will explore how the body affects the mind in the same way that the mind affects the body, how our moods reflect our body posture and how our body condition affects the mind. There will be 2 yoga sessions per week.

________________________________________________________________

Spanish (optional extra)

We offer Spanish lessons at basic or intermediate level. We aim to teach you conversational Spanish - there is no diploma at the end of the course just a better understanding.

________________________________________________________________

Paragliding (optional extra)

Tandem paragliding flights can be arranged. The local village sits below a 3000' mountain called Sierra de Lijar. Throughout the year, there are many hang gliding and paragliding pilots who come to fly this mountain range. All flights are weather dependent.

Powered sailplane flights (optional extra)

These 30 minute flights are available from the local airport and can take you around the lakes and over the mountains.

________________________________________________________________

Horse riding (optional extra)

You can go for a half day or full day trek, or just enjoy an hourly ride around the lake. Most of the riding in this area is western style.

Extra therapies

Reflexology, Reiki and massage are all available, and you will find them all very relaxing. They will help balance your body and promote natural healing. Sessions are between 40 minutes to 1 hour.
