A TURNING BACK
Getting out of bed with the crowing of the cock, gathering eggs, going to the garden, preparing food, enjoying our surroundings, telling stories under the stars... These are all things that used to fill the days of our villages and that today are barely a memory.
With this eco-sustainable experience you will have the opportunity to recover them and enjoy two days and an unforgettable night; from the collection of food and plants to the preparation of food and medicinal products, as well as stargazing and enjoying nature in a protected environment.
- This is an experience for everyone, perfect also for families.
- The activity can be carried out all year round, although it is more suitable for spring or summer.
- It includes accommodation in a rural flat in the town of Biel, as well as meals and activities.
- The price for up to 4 people in a flat is 300 euros (large groups up to 12 people, please consult).
This experience takes place in the small medieval village of Biel, located in the High Cinco Villas, in the protected landscape of the Sierra de Santo Domingo; an idyllic and unknown place where it seems that time has not passed.
In Biel is the Green School, with a space of 2,400 metres and bio-climatic constructions made of wood and ecological materials. It also has a 130-metre greenhouse and a vegetable garden area.
Itinerary
BREATHE

Visit to the protected landscape
On arrival there will be a visit to the protected natural landscape around Biel, in the Sierra de Santo Domingo, a place of fertile meadows and high rocky walls inhabited by numerous birds of prey.

ENJOY
Time : 2:00 pm
From the garden to the plate
Afterwards, we will visit the vegetable garden to collect some produce, and we will go to say hello to the hens at Las Lezas country house, where we will collect fresh eggs that we will use to prepare and enjoy a delicious and simple meal to recover our strength.
ELABORA
Time : 6:00 pm
Plant workshop
In the afternoon we will have an interesting workshop on medicinal plants in which we will use local plants to make a product with our own hands that we can then take home. In this workshop we will also learn how to distinguish the different plants and the methods for making products with them such as creams, ointments, perfumes, soaps...
DREAM
Time : 10:00 pm
Stars and rest
With the arrival of the night and the stars, we will go to the green school to learn to identify and distinguish the stars and constellations, taking advantage of a clean sky without light pollution.
Afterwards we can rest in the rural house Las Lezas, in the same Biel.
GET TO KNOW
Time : 11:00 am
Play and cultural visit
The next day, well rested, we will walk through the narrow, cobbled streets of Biel to discover all its secrets through a game of clues that will lead us to the castle, to the houses and corners and to interact with its inhabitants.
In Biel there are many options to enjoy. If on the day of the experience the sky is cloudy and does not allow us to see the stars, we will change this activity for another equally interesting one.
The price is defined on the basis of accommodation in a flat for up to 4 people. For other options, please consult us.
The best thing to do is to contact Álvaro directly to ask him about the options, he will be delighted to welcome you for more days!
