Ever wanted to stay at a 5-stars hotel? Why settle with 5 when you can sleep under the heavens at night to escape the blazing heat in Madrid! Our second night hike, we'll revisit the one we made last year to Pradera de Navarrulaque

On Saturday evening, we'll take the train from Nuevos Ministerios towards Cercedilla. Once there, we'll begin our ascent towards Pradera de Navarrulaque, walking around the valley. This will be a FREE hike for you guys, but we still need to buy insurance for you for both days (6€ total). If you have your own insurance, let us know beforehand.

Limited spots (9 only) for this hike, as we need to keep a close-knit group, so make sure to sign up quickly! Once you have your ticket, let us know by whatsapping us directly at +34 654 652 901.

Technical details:

Difficulty: Medium. A bit of hiking during the night and walking the following morning. Due to the load .

Distance (approx): 18.8 km, spread across 2 days.Height difference: around 700m. Most of it on the first day, the rest will be gradually climbed when walking.Estimated duration: around 7h walking time, spread across 2 days.

Required and recommended equipment:

Since this will be mainly a night hike with a short day hike next day, we'll need a bit more material than usual:

* Camping bag rated for 10~15 ºC comfort temperature, along with a yoga mat for insulation / padding. This is 100% required.

* Headlamp! A hand torch won't cut it, for the aforementioned reasons. Bring spare batteries or the USB cable and a powerbank, in case prolonged use is required. Also 100% required

* A backpack large enough to carry all your stuff. You need to be able to walk with your hands free for certain parts of the route.

* Food for dinner and breakfast. Plan accordingly so you have your energy stores in top shape!.

* Water, minimum 2L is an ABSOLUTE requirement. There are fountains on the way back that might have some water, but until then we need to keep stock of it. Besides, it hasn't rained much lately so fountains might be dry.

* A warm jacket is definitely a plus. Last time we had an unexpected windy, chilly night and that wasn't much fun.

Health guidelines

Due to the ongoing pandemic and in accordance to healthcare authorities, we need to add certain guidelines:

* If you're feeling unwell or have been in contact recently with someone that has shown symptoms of Covid-19, please refrain from attending the hike.

* Bring your own facemask. As of July 27th, masks are mandatory everywhere

* Sharing water is prohibited (except if you already live together, of course), so bring enough for yourself.
