Trekking in Serra de Gredos

Are participants always accompanied by the Outside guide?

The Outside guide accompanies the group throughout the trip, with the exception of some moments in the city, when participants are free, if they wish, to shop, stroll and rest.

Are there any other periods for the trip?

The trip is scheduled on the mentioned date and we will only open an extra date when the group closes (8 to 12 participants). If so, the period chosen will be the 1st fortnight of September. This trip can be booked on a date to be defined, within the availability of Outside and the time when it is possible to carry out the program, for a minimum group of 8 people.

How do you travel to the start of the activity?

Outside is a travel agency and makes the reservation of flights, unless participants wish to make their reservation individually. This service has no additional costs for participants. Travel for this program can also be done by car, if possible in shared car to reduce costs.

How is enrollment in the program done?

If interested, participants should contact Outside, which will send a digital form to fill in with all the information necessary for the trip. To make the registration official, it will be necessary to pay a deposit of 25% of the total amount. The remaining payment is phased.

Is there any kind of support after registration?

After registering, participants receive a document with all the details of the trip (itinerary, list of material-equipment, information about the places, contacts, etc.). Two to three months before the trip we have a preparation session where all aspects of the trip are covered. Any doubts about the program will also be clarified. Finally, the Outside team will be available to clarify any doubts or questions.

Until when can registration be made?

Registration can be done up to 2 months before the trip. However, to ensure that there are places available, we advise you to do so by the end of February. Not only to prepare the trip in time, but also because closer to the date of the trip, we cannot guarantee that there are places available for the program.

What is a mountain shelter?

It is a construction located high in the mountains that is used to support people doing mountain activities (hiking, mountaineering, climbing, etc.). There is usually no electrical supply, which is obtained through solar panels or generators. It has a dining room, bedrooms or dormitories, bathrooms and showers. Hot water may only be available for a few hours a day to save resources.
