Senderismo Activo

Even though we are in the heart of Madrid, at Active Hiking we organize hiking and ornithological routes through the varied nature that exists within the Community of Madrid and even throughout the Spanish territory, when we make trips of several days.

Here we are biologists and mountain guides, and every month we go into the mountains around 10 people to play sports, learn about the history of the places where we go, their geology and the elements that make them up, and They make them so special. This number of people for the expedition is very comfortable, because it will ensure that we all have a good relationship and it is not so large as to get lost in the explanations.

From north to south, in the Community we hike in places such as thePresa de Picadas, along the banks of the Alberche River, or the Senda de Guariñas, in Buitrago del Lozoya, at the foot of the Sierra de Guadarrama, among many other outings.

Just as we will do long routes, lasting several days, through places throughout the Peninsula: the Ordesa Valley in the Pyrenees, the Despeñaperros Natural Park in Andalusia or Monfragüe in Extremadura.

But we take advantage of the trails surrounded by flora and fauna to do ornithological routes around the capital. We will go with a professional ornithologist and a telescope to see the common kestrel, the great bustard, the marsh harriers and the little bustard, as well as many other species.

We will all leave together from the city to share transportation and reduce toxic emissions into the environment.

Can you imagine staying in Madrid Central and, a while later, being in the heart of Madrid's nature doing a hiking route? At Active Hiking we organize tours through various points in the Community of Madrid, because the rural area surrounding the capital is very wide and varied.

With a mountain guide, we set out from the center in a small group of people, to do the most familiar route in which, if the difficulty allows it, it is possible to bring pets. Every month we go out into the mountains, such as the Senda de Guariñas in the Sierra de Guadarrama, the Cancho de los Muertos in la Pedriza and the Cuerda Larga in the port of Morcuera.

They are routes to learn about geography and geology and their development over the years, and the life that inhabits it. We will know how to differentiate the animal and plant species that populate these lands.

But we do not only move within the Community of Madrid. When we have time, we go on hiking routes through places throughout Spain. We have gone to the Pyrenees, to the Monfragüe National Park or to the Ponga Natural Park, in the Cantabrian Mountains. They are paradises that we explore on foot, doing sports and with good company while we discover all the natural treasures that make up the Spanish territory.
