Escuela Asturiana , Arriondas (Asturias) 2022

Escuela Asturiana is a company dedicated to multi-adventure sports for several years. It is a school whose instructors are highly qualified in water, mountain and adventure sports in general.

For those looking for strong emotions while cooling off, this company will organize canoeing , rafting or hydrospeed courses and activities. To do all the activities it is necessary to know how to swim fluently and to be able to maintain a little balance on the different boats. The river through which we will make these descents will be mainly the Sella River , one of the most famous for the strong emotions that its waters provide.

Adventure activities are another strong point of this company, with them you can do exciting activities such as 4x4 routes , climbing and canyoning . In addition, they have more relaxed but equally attractive activities such as hiking , caving and horse riding .

But if what you want is something different and different from everything else, they propose a paragliding two-seater flight with one of their monitors. You can also practice your aim at the shooting range with an archery activity, or by shooting at your friends in a fun-filled paintball game.

All this in a unique natural setting such as the vicinity of the Picos de Europa . If you want to try a getaway full of adventure and strong activities, get in touch with Escuela Asturiana as soon as possible and start reserving a space in your agenda.

Canoeing is a sport that has more and more users due to its ease and the possibility of doing it individually or with more people. At Escuela Asturiana we have prepared courses for you to enjoy the river aboard a canoe learning all the secrets to handle it.

We have a large fleet of canoes so you can choose the number of seats on board. You can set the course yourself in an individual canoe or come with friends to descend the Sella.

The shortest route lasts around 1 hour and a half and we will get to Toraño . The following route is somewhat longer, it will take you 2 to 3 hours and will reach the town of Llordón . The longest section will be almost 4 hours until disembarking in Rain .

They are very simple routes that are made aboard practically unsinkable canoes. You can do it without experience and you will discover a world of very refreshing fun. So that there is no problem, the Asturian School monitors will be with you throughout the route and will help you with any problems that may arise during the descent.

If we have convinced you, come with us to explore the best sections of the Sella aboard a fantastic canoe.

If you want to live a unique experience, enter the exciting world of canyoning. It is an activity for which nothing else is required as a requirement other than knowing how to swim. In addition, Escuela Asturiana Barranquismo is prepared to take you through the best Asturian ravines. Are you going to miss it?

Descending canyons is one of the most fun activities that you can practice with the people you love the most, whether they are your friends or your partner. What's more, many groups practice this activity for bachelor parties or team building with companies.

The mountain guides will adapt the ravine to the level of the participants, since we understand that not everyone has the same needs or experience in this type of activity.

You won't have to worry about the equipment either, since we take care of providing you with everything you need, such as neoprene or booties.

Keep in mind that once you practice it, you will want to repeat it and who knows if tomorrow you will make your hobby your profession by becoming a monaña guide!

Do not hesitate and contact Escuela Asturiana Barranquismo for more information and reservations. We will be happy to assist you and encourage you to try this activity. Surely you will not regret it.

Go down the river at full speed in a very fun activity. At Escuela Asturiana we want to propose you a rafting descent so that you can enjoy the speed while having a great time aboard an inflatable raft.

The descent will take place in one of the wildest stretches of the Sella River , a perfect river for any type of water sport and especially for rafting. This activity is for a minimum of 6 people since our rafts have a capacity for 6, 8 or 10 sailors . If you are more, you can come up to a maximum of 50 people and we will prepare a special descent.

It is not necessary to have rafted before to do this activity but we do ask you to know how to swim and stay in the water with ease. If you meet this requirement, don't wait any longer and ask us for all the information you need so that you can enjoy the descent with us.

Plan your descent of the Sella in the most frenetic and fun way with Escuela Asturiana, rafting is how you enjoy the adventure of this famous northern river the most and we make it very easy for you to achieve it.

At the Asturian School we want you to experience the descent of the Sella in the most intense way possible and the way to achieve it is through hydrospeed.

To hydrospeed in the Sella we use a floating board, like a water sled to which the participant is attached to go down the river individually. You face the whitewater face to face, so you will have to be of legal age and be careful with the elements that we find, such as rocks and the branches of the banks. You will be protected by a particularly thick neoprene, so that contact with obstacles is not a problem, and by a helmet that you must keep on.

We start this adventure at 10.30 am in the morning and it will take us almost half a full day. Of course, the ideal is to stick to the spring months so that the state of the river is adequate for this modality, since it is during the dates of the thaw when we will sail with everything in our favor.

Each hydrospeed group is led by an instructor in one of these sleds who will indicate how to continue along the section in question. At the end of this same set, another of the members of our team is placed in a kayak to make sure that all of you are well.

Fly over the Asturian mountains aboard a two-seater paraglider. With Escuela Asturiana you can do it with different options depending on whether you are looking for something occasional or a course of more than one day:

• Paragliding ride: you will enjoy a flight without having previous experience or a forecast to continue practicing this sport. You will jump on a two-seater paraglider in which a monitor will go with you who will keep the paraglider heading and make sure you enjoy this experience.

• Introductory course: this course is designed for all those who have jumped and want to continue enjoying this sport. You will learn everything you need to fly in both theoretical and practical classes. You will learn to take off, land and make turns in the air. At the end of this course you will be able to take an exam that will give you the official title of Paragliding Pilot.

• Improvement course : if you are already a great pilot and want to improve everything you know, come and take a improvement course with us. You will be able to fly with other paragliding pilots and glide near slopes and high mountains. This course lasts 4 days and it will be necessary to have completed an introductory course previously

In all the courses and activities we will leave you the necessary materials for you to rise and glide over the Asturian mountain range. Contact us if you have any questions and we will try to solve all your questions.

At Escuela Asturiana we are a few kilometers from the impressive Picos de Europa Natural Park . We will travel there to carry out the climbing activities that we have proposed for you.

If you are an experienced climber, we will take you through more complicated walls that will require some skill to travel the most complicated routes. But if what you are looking for is a first contact with climbing, we will look for simpler walls so that you can face them without much difficulty.

All the walls that we climb are in the area of the Picos de Europa and you will be the one who has the last word as to which mountain to climb. You should contact us before to tell us what level you have and what your preferences are and we will find the perfect mountain for you.

To climb it is necessary to have some agility to perform complicated movements and you will need comfortable shoes to be able to secure your feet at the different points of the route.

If you are interested in our climbing activity, don't think twice and contact us so that you can enjoy this sport in the best conditions.

Come walk through the Asturian mountains on a hiking route that we have prepared at Escuela Asturiana. You will enjoy nature as you have never done before passing through routes full of vegetation and surprising fauna.

You will enjoy a day in nature walking next to the wildest animals. You will travel routes through the Picos de Europa area, adapting to your level. It is not necessary to have a great experience to go hiking but you do require a sufficient physical condition to endure the entire route. Depending on this condition, we will look for more or less complicated paths according to your preferences.

Hiking is the best way to discover the mountains and reach places as impressive as the Lakes of Covadonga . We will also take you along the Ruta del Cares to show you a unique place formed by the river. Another of our routes passes through Ordiales , a place with a lot of charm and full of surprising landscapes.

This activity is perfect for families since the little ones can come and learn about nature on spectacular routes.

Do you want to discover the depths of the earth? Feel like a true explorer with the caving activity that we have prepared for you.

We will go down to the interior of the limestone caves in the easternmost part of Asturias. There we will investigate all the underground galleries, letting ourselves be surprised by the incredible stalagmites and stalactites that appear before our eyes. We will also see underground rivers and the result of their erosion in the cave.

You will be able to enjoy an amazing rocky forest that we will investigate at different levels.
Basic level: this tour will be done without ropes or complicated jumps. You will walk through simple galleries while enjoying the formations around you.

Deep level: for the most daring we have prepared a walk in which you will have to descend using ropes, make small jumps and travel slopes full of charm.

From the moment you enter the cave you must wear a protective helmet with lighting and a jumpsuit that you will put on over your clothes. The clothes with which you come must be comfortable to be able to move easily and the footwear must be of a mountain type so that the sole does not slip.

If you need more information, contact us and we will answer your questions.

If you want to practice a sport that does not require physical strength or excessive wear, you can come with us and test your aim in archery.

Come to our shooting range in Arriondas and enjoy this special sport by shooting arrows at a target located at a great distance. You will test your aim at 15 meters to start and learn, and then we will move it away so that you feel like a true archer shooting in the distance.

Archery is more fun practicing in a group and competing to be the one with the most points. For this reason, we invite you to come with your friends or with your co-workers and defeat them by showing that you are the most accurate with the arrows.

The environment is also an incentive to practice archery with us since you can admire the Picos de Europa and other mountains around us.

We all know how impressive the Asturian landscape is. Being in this place and not doing any of the many sporting adventures it offers is almost a sin.

With our boats and our paddles, you will be able to row far away, surrounding each stretch of nature. We always make departures from Arriondas , which is the town where we are. The navigation possibilities are as follows:

• Sea kayak : it is a journey guided by a monitor through areas between Llanes, Lastres and Ribadesella. The duration is at least 2 hours.
