The best way to close the school year: a few days of adventure, community and nature in a Celtic village your students will never forget.
The experience
Every May and June, schools from all over Spain say goodbye to the school year at Aldealix. This is no ordinary excursion: it means living for a few days in a rebuilt Celtic hillfort, surrounded by oak forests and with a mountain gorge just steps away.
The programme combines adventure activities, walks around the area and themed evening shows, and is adapted to the group's age and the days available. The teaching staff set the pace; we provide the village, the leaders and the magic.
More than three decades welcoming school groups have taught us what matters: safety, organisation, and students going home with stories to tell.
What's included
We take care of everything so organising the trip is easy. Request a quote with no obligation and we'll tailor it to your group.
We design the stay together with the teaching staff: length, pace and activities suited to the year group.
Our team runs every activity and looks after the group, so teachers get to enjoy the trip too.
Students sleep in the pallozas of the hillfort — an experience that justifies the trip all by itself.
Home-style camp cooking throughout the stay, catering for allergies and intolerances notified by the school.
Certified equipment, supervised activities and clear protocols: the peace of mind a school needs.
Nights of Celtic legends, games and theatre that make the trip the story of the school year.
The stay
From the moment the coach arrives at the village to the farewell, every moment is designed for the group to bond, play and switch off from their screens.
Arrival
A warm welcome, palloza assignments and a first walk around the village: the mill, the shepherds' shelter, the gorge. Wide-eyed faces guaranteed.
In the morning
Zip line, archery or climbing, depending on the agreed programme — always in groups and with specialist instructors.
In the afternoon
Cooperative games, trails around the area and a visit to the hillfort to discover the sierra and its history.
At night
Legends, theatre and night games around the fire: the moment every student remembers.
Farewell
One last morning of games, packing up and goodbyes. The group leaves closer than it arrived, with stories to last the whole summer.
Featured activities
A sample of what your programme could include. We finalise it together based on the group's age and the length of the trip.
Treasure hunts, Celtic olympics and team games in the village meadows, designed to bring the group together.
Focus and aim on the archery range — a favourite of every graduating class.
A day of paddling on calm waters: coordination, laughter and teamwork, with life jackets and instructors on the water. Available as an optional extra.
Zip line, climbing and an introduction to mountain adventure, always with certified equipment.
The hillfort, the 13th-century mill and the 18th-century shepherds' shelter: a different way to learn history — by living it.
Weather permitting, a swim in the crystal-clear rock pools right beside the village. Nature at its purest.
