When people talk about «multi-adventure activities», a classic set of disciplines appears in almost every camp. This is the quick guide to what a young person will encounter and how each one works.
The great classics
Climbing
On the facility’s own climbing wall or a nearby natural rock face. With certified equipment, harness and a qualified activity leader. It teaches wall reading, confidence and teamwork (climber and belayer).
Archery
On meadows or dedicated areas with regulation targets. One of the most popular activities: it combines technique, concentration and immediate results.
Mountain hikes
Guided trekking through the camp’s surroundings. Distances adapted by age. Teaches navigation, pacing and respect for the environment.
Ropes course
A high-ropes circuit with zip line, bear traverse, Tibetan bridge and cable walk. Permanent safety equipment and an activity leader at every station.
The ones that really get you hooked
Bivouac
A night away from the main accommodation, with a sleeping bag under the stars or in a tent. One of the most vivid memories of the camp.
Surfing and kayaking
At coastal camps (Santander) or with a nearby river. Board and wetsuit or kayak included. Courses run by an official school.
Inflatable games
A full day of giant inflatables and cooperative games. Collective laughter. The most requested activity year after year.
Themed treasure hunts
Team challenges with a narrative thread. Live Cluedo, capture the flag and the treasure hunt are classics.

Frequently asked questions
Is prior experience required for any activity?
No. All disciplines are adapted to introductory level and activity leaders progress the pace according to age and ability.
What if a child is afraid of heights?
The activity leader adapts the activity. Nobody is forced to go higher. The idea is to challenge, not to frighten.
Are there activities suitable for both 6-year-olds and 16-year-olds?
The group is divided by age. Each group does age-adapted versions of the same activity.
What clothing should I bring?
Sports clothing that can get dirty, closed footwear for hiking, swimwear and sandals. The organisation sends a complete kit list.
What happens when it rains?
Indoor activities are planned in advance: workshops, cooperative games, cinema. Plan Bs are part of the camp experience.
