Discover the night life and the immensity of the sky.
Hiking route in the natural environment with the lights of the sunset and interpretation of stars at nightfall in the Suertes de Fuente Alta in summer and in the path of the Canal de la Espartera in spring - summer - autumn.
This route is done in small groups in order to appreciate nature in detail.
During the walk at sunset we will learn to get along in the natural environment with the 5 senses: we will use the touch by walking and touching the bark of the trees, the aromatic plants, the bushes, the rocks and the lichens.
Through the same we will also notice the coolness of the sunset on our face; the ear, through which we will appreciate the different sounds of the fauna and the crackling of the leaves or the movement of the stones as we pass; the sense of smell, which will allow us to detect the smell of the pines, the aromatic plants and, sometimes, we will be able to detect the scent of the trees and the aromatic plants; the sense of smell, which will allow us to detect the smell of the trees, the aromatic plants and, sometimes, we will be able to detect the scent of the trees.We will use our sense of taste to taste some autumn fruits if the activity is carried out at that time; and our sight, through which we will admire the colors of the sunset and the mountain scenery.
As the sun sets, we will all have to make an effort to rely on our senses, leaving sight in the background.
After the walk, we will have a fun astro-talk lying under the stars using maps of constellations in relief, comets, asteroids and planets that will bring the Universe closer to our hands.
