Announcing a new Meetup for The Barcelona Hiking & Outdoors Group!

What: Canyoning: Sierra de Guara

When: September 5, 2009 6:30 AM

Where:
Palau Reial
c/ Tinent Coronel Valenzuela
Barcelona

Join this weekend in Sierra de Guara (Huesca) for Canyoning!

The plan is to leave early on Saturday, do a Canyon on that day and go camping the night of Saturday. On Sunday depending on what you want some could do another Canyon, hike or relax in the village of Alquezar.

We will hire all the technical gear and a guide there, cost around 45€ each Canyon.
For the Canyons we will need:

• Swimsuit
  
• Towel
  
• Trainers (that you do not mind getting wet)
  

You will also need:

• Tent (if you have)
  
• Rucksack
  
• Sleeping mat
  
• Sleeping bag
  
• Stove and cooking stuff (if you have and want to cook)
  
• Torch
  
• Other stuff you need for camping or hiking
  

We are going by car.

Cars

• Jaime: 4 places
  

Tents

• Jaime: 3 places
  

If somebody with another car and somebody with another tent joins this meetup, I will increase the amount of people that can join us.

If you wish to join the event, please say if you have a tent and how big it is.

Petrol and camping costs (aprox. petrol costs: 60 EUR, camping costs: still unknown) will be split. The car driver is responsible for requesting the costs of his/her passengers.

On Saturday night, we normally go out to a restaurant as a group and menu prices generally range from 20-30EUR/person. Afterwards, those who have the energy tend to go and have some drinks at a local bar. This has normally been the trend on the weekend hikes, so you should be prepared to bring with you the right amount of cash to pay for everything if you plan to take part in these activities.

We'll meet at Palau Reial (Av. Diagonal / Tinent Coronel Valenzuela). You can see the location here.

BEGINNERS ARE ALLOWED: Better if you are reasonably fit but for sure you should know how to swim!!!

We will not wait at the meeting point longer than 15 minutes. The schedule is very important this time.

If the event is full and you'd like to join it, respond with a No, including a comment telling that you wish to come and if you have a car and / or a tent and for how many people. I will change your RSVP to Yes in case there is any free room.
