Guies d'Arrel

Guies d'Arrel is a company dedicated to guided hikes in nature, with a special focus on inclusion. Their mission is to make the experience of enjoying the mountains accessible to everyone, regardless of their abilities. The love and gratitude they feel for the natural environment drives them to believe that there are no limits when it comes to connecting with nature.

Inclusion and accessibility

At Guies d'Arrel, inclusion is not just about breaking down barriers; it's about normalizing coexistence among all people through shared experiences in nature. They have received specific training to work with people with reduced mobility, blindness, deafness, and other conditions, ensuring that every participant feels included and welcome. All the routes they offer are designed to be accessible to everyone, promoting an environment of respect and diversity.

Activities

At Guies d'Arrel, we offer different ways to experience and discover the mountains, always with respect for the environment, safety, and the desire for everyone to enjoy nature. From inclusive routes and multi-day treks to ascents, winter itineraries, and training courses, we adapt the experiences to the needs, interests, and abilities of each individual or group.

Inclusive activities

We believe the mountains are a space that should be shared by everyone. That's why we offer inclusive activities and personalized routes, adapted to the interests, levels, and abilities of each participant. We can choose a specific summit, combine mountain huts, or design a tailor-made itinerary so that everyone can experience the mountains at their own pace and in the way that best suits their needs.

The goal is that differences should not be a barrier to enjoying a shared experience in nature, but an opportunity to discover new ways of relating to the environment and to each other.

Crossings

Trekking allows you to experience the mountains for several days, exploring valleys, peaks, and mountain huts, and connecting with the land on a deeper level. At Guies d'Arrel, we offer itineraries such as Carros de Foc, in the Aigüestortes i Estany de Sant Maurici National Park, and Cavalls del Vent, in the Cadí-Moixeró Natural Park.

We can also create customized treks, choosing the peaks, mountain huts, and routes according to the group's interests and skill level. In this way, each trek becomes a tailored experience, designed to allow you to enjoy the Pyrenees calmly and meaningfully.

Snow trails

In winter, the mountains transform, offering new ways to discover them. Our snow routes include introductory options for those who want to start hiking on snow, night hikes, and ascents to winter peaks.

We can discover spaces in the Pyrenees under the light of the moon or headlamp, or tackle ascents such as Pic de la Dona, Bastiments or Gallina Pelada, always choosing the activity according to the experience and characteristics of each participant.

Trekking and summits

For those who want to hike, challenge themselves, and achieve new goals, we offer treks and climbs to some of the most iconic peaks in Catalonia and the Pyrenees. Among our options are Pedraforca, Pica d'Estats, and the Bessiberri massif, with varying levels of difficulty.

We also design tailor-made outings for individuals or groups with a specific goal or who want to discover the mountains in a different way. We choose the itinerary taking into account the level of difficulty, the time available, and the desired experience.

Training and awareness workshops

Inclusion is also built by sharing knowledge and creating spaces for reflection. That's why we offer training and awareness workshops on inclusion and accessibility in nature, based on practical experiences and an understanding of the diverse realities of people in the natural environment.

The activities are aimed at organizations, professionals, educational centers, and individuals interested in discovering how to make nature activities more accessible, inclusive, and respectful of everyone. The goal is to provide tools and experiences that help build a mountain environment where everyone is welcome.
