Group Walking Holidays with Collett's
Group Walking Holidays
based in Panticosa in the Spanish Pyrenees
Collett's is used to looking after groups and clubs that come to walk in the Dolomites and Pyrenees. We offer considerable support, ideal accommodation and great flexibility.
We can help you put together an appropriate programme of memorable walks, whether you self-guide or whether you choose to be accompanied on the walks by one of us. With larger parties, we are happy to offer you a dedicated walks organiser, who will ensure your outdoor arrangements are plainsailing and trouble-free.
We place significant emphasis on supporting the party organiser right from the initial enquiry through to the end of an unforgettable holiday. We will take great interest in your plans and will do everything possible to help you bring them to fruition.
We understand the challenge and hard work taken on by the organisers of large parties and we aim to eliminate stress by being flexible and efficient across the board - travel, accommodation and itinerary planning or support. Our aim is the unconditional success of your venture.
Immense Flexibility & Choice - on Accommodation, Dates, Travel and how you spend your days.
- Some groups prefer to walk independently.
In the evenings over a sociable drink you can glean guidance and information from our walk leaders and consequently put together a succession of memorable days out. - We can create and tailor a programme of walks to meet your requirements and preferences.
You can either do these independently or in the company of a dedicated member of our walks team. - Groups with varying levels of fitness and different
interests.
These can disperse during the day and join the walks and activities we organise for our other guests. Five days a week we organise the following and members of your party are welcome to go along and join in free of charge.Simply drop into 'Office Hour' and arrange to take part in whatever takes your fancy. This is what is on offer five days a week to all our guests whether you are staying in Arabba, Corvara or Pedraces:
-
Moderate, high Level & harder Walks
A more demanding route on the spectacular high level trails in and around the nearby massifs. See High Level Walking Holidays in the Pyrenees. -
Ordesa & the fajas
We regularly walk in the Ordesa and Monte Perdido National Park which is in the Aragonese Pyrenees at the foot of Monte Perdido rising up 11,007 feet. The mountains and clifs here (very similar to the Dolomites in their architecture) have, over many years, eroded creating spectacular ledges in the cliffs. Some of these are called Fajas (pronounced fa-ha) and are passable. -
Accommodation
Hotel Sabocos is a stone's throw away from the village centre. It is a delightful hotel run by Abelardo and Pía Arruebo and their family. It provides modern and comfortable accommodation in en suite bedrooms, many with balconies enjoying enchanting mountain views.
You are sure to love its spacious first floor lounge, where each evening (except Wed.) we hold Office Hour. This room characterises the warm hospitality you can expect here - lots of comfy armchairs and sofas arranged in cosy alcoves; bookshelves, chess and card tables; and french windows to a large terrace with majestic views. It is the perfect place to relax with a book or to sit with friends over a post-walk drink. - ABTA & AITO - Collett's is bonded with ABTA. Your money is safe.
in the Ordesa National Park
A Collett's holiday can be tailored to meet each of your requirements and preferences. Travel here as you please either fly-driving, self-driving or getting the train to Pau or Lourdes then hiring a car.
Office Hour
-
organise your itineraries daily with support from our staff
Each early evening (except Wednesday) we hold 'Office Hour'. More relaxed than its name suggests, some people just drop in for a sociable drink to share the day's experiences with friends, who may have been doing other things. Here you can join up for the following day's organised walks, Via Ferratas, painting etc. You can browse through maps and ask questions.
If planning an independent itinerary, we will happily help and advise. We can also book other mountain pursuits for you, such as rafting, paragliding, horseriding etc.. It is also ideal for meeting like-minded people in a sociable atmosphere and this can have pleasant repercussions. Often walkers, climbers, or families will team up for a day out as a result of dropping in.
Stay as long as you like, arriving and departing on whatever day suits you. Choose between halfboard, bed and breakfast or self catering accommodation from an excellent range of properties in Panticosa.
