What is an outdoor learning program?
We all know what a traditional classroom looks like. But at Guías del Pirineo, we take learning beyond its four walls, replacing them with the forests and open skies of the Pyrenees. Desks and chairs give way to rocks and mountain meadows, while the playground becomes the natural parks, gorges and mountain cliffs of the Pyrenees.
The natural environment is the perfect place to learn about nature and conservation. That’s what our outdoor learning programs are all about.
These activities offer a first introduction to the natural world. The aim is to have fun outdoors while learning about nature and understanding why it is important to protect it.
Spending a night away with your class is a great opportunity to share new experiences and discover the outdoors together. These programs offer hands-on activities in nature. Students explore the rich biodiversity of the Pyrenees and learn about the local environment.
We take learning outdoors, giving students the chance to explore the mountains, learn about nature first-hand and enjoy a range of outdoor activities. Our aim is to inspire a love of the natural world and encourage students to help protect the rich biodiversity of the Pyrenees.
The experience begins before arriving in the Pyrenees. At Guías del Pirineo, you’ll have a contact person to support you throughout the process, from planning the program to the activities in the mountains. As part of our outdoor learning programs, we send you materials and activity ideas to use in the classroom beforehand. Through fun activities, students can start exploring the topics, sparking their curiosity and building excitement.
That way, by the time they arrive in the Pyrenees, they’ll be ready to take part in the activities and discover the mountains first-hand.
We offer several ready-made programs and activities to help you discover the Pyrenees. However, we also like to tailor each experience to the needs and interests of every group.
We can start from scratch, based on your preferences, or combine different activities and ideas from our programs. If you would like to receive a example program, don’t hesitate to get in touch. We offer:
