🌄 **ES** Yepalo hiking is a multicultural group of people who want to meet new people and discover impressive natural environments together. All the activities we propose are directed by passionate professional guides.
**EN(See English translation below)**

Our goal is to connect people with each other and with nature, share our knowledge of the mountains and the natural environment, and have fun together.

👣 **What do we do?** 👣 
The natural places around Barcelona are infinite and surprising, yet often unknown. This is a group for anyone interested in discovering the natural secrets of Catalonia and Spain. Let's get to know each other, travel together and live new adventures full of surprises. Away from the crowds, we'll hike in nature reserves and have fun practicing gentle outdoor activities (in addition to hiking, we also like kayaking, yoga and Stand Up Paddle, for example).

🙋🏻‍♂️ **Who are we?** 🙋🏽‍♀️
🤠Moshe (CEO – Crazy Enthusiastic Organizer)
She is Belgian and has lived in Barcelona since 2008.

When he created this group, he did not imagine that it would literally change his life. After 2 years organizing hiking Meetups for free and just for fun, he decided to leave his job in the fashion industry to try to make a living from his passion. He trained as a mountain guide (TD2 half Mountain) and together with Martí (his training partner) they now organize outings in nature.
Thanks to this Meetup group (previously called Catalonia Discovery) and all the people who have supported and motivated him in recent years, he has been able to meet many great people, discover incredible places, create his own new job and this beautiful project: YEPALO .
He speaks French, Spanish, English, Portuguese and a little bit of Catalan.

🧢**Martí** (A true lover of nature and photography, passionate about geology, fauna and flora)
He was born in Sant Cugat del Vallès, where he has lived much of his life. There he has his family and friends, creates new projects and lays down his main roots. He finds other roots in the Pyrenees, where he found a part of himself that he did not know, and that is... the love for nature and the mountains!
In a past life he studied and worked for a few years as a biochemist, but changed his course to dedicate himself to his passion. He is now a mountain guide (TD2 half Mountain), environmental educator and loves his work.
He is passionate about the mountains and what he finds in them... rocks, plants, animals and stories. You will surely find him in the mountains with a shirt and cap, camera in hand, with one eye on the road and the other looking for animals and flowers.
He speaks Spanish, Catalan, English and a little French.
