Description

Context The activity takes place in the Natural Park of Montseny, a protected area featuring trails that rise to 1,000 meters, where fresh air carries the scents of pine and thyme. The permanent orienteering circuit includes 20 checkpoints spread across a mountainous terrain with moderate elevation gain—ideal for combining physical exercise with navigation skills.

The experience After an initial briefing at Can Putxet, participants receive maps and compasses to locate control points. Teams traverse forested paths and open clearings with views extending to the Pyrenees, tackling challenges that require communication and strategic thinking. The sounds of the woodland accompany every step as teams search for checkpoints, and in some formats, finish with a team archery challenge.

For whom Designed for school groups (children from age 8), corporate teams seeking team cohesion, and active friend groups. Not suitable for individuals with limited mobility or those avoiding physical outdoor activity in mountain terrain.

Local context Montseny is a renowned natural landmark in Catalonia, long known for outdoor activities and environmental education. Can Putxet, the youth colony house serving as the starting point, is a center dedicated to fostering connection with nature and experiential learning through adventure.
