This beautiful national park in Spain is the perfect location for a great day adventure, combining two activites on the same day. The park has beautiful forests and trees and offers great views of the Sierra de Guadarrama mountains.

Once we finish our acquatic activity we will go up with the cars to Puerto de Cotos, where we can eat and the start the hike.  The walk will last about 3 to 3, 30 hours. You will enjoy the natural beauty and tranquility of the Sierra de Guadarrama National Park.

About the guide

Really, I don´t know why I go to the mountains, what is the mighty influence that catch me... peace, challenge, beauty, overcoming, friendship, self-knowledge... so many things that it would be never ending. But I know that my life would be much worse without the mountains.

These are the reasons that led me to be a mountain guide, to share my passion, my world with all the people who want to enjoy on the mountain and to be a little happier.

I got my title as UIMLA guide in 2009 and since that time I have worked in Spain, my home, and a lots of differents mountains ranges along the world: Alps, Atlas, Pyrinees, Patagonia, Scotland, Norway, Rocky Mountains, Tatras...

We will be delighted to welcome you and show you our favourites places so that they get inside yours hearts.
