The Picos de Europa National Park is a pristine playground for all sorts of fun, healthy, outdoor activities and we will be including some really exciting ones in our itinerary as well as facilitating others organised by external providers! You can read below some of the things we will be doing or are currently projecting:

 

Minirig Secret Mountain Sessions 

This year we will be trying something absolutely brand new! We’ll be hiking to a secret, off the beaten track location to host a totally portable, off-the-grid, pop up set supported by Minirigs who have provided us with some top quality portable speakers! We will be using all portable, battery powered equipment which can be carried in a backpack and charged from a solar panel. The careful choice of sustainable, compact and portable audio solutions will reduce our carbon footprint as well as preventing noise pollution. As we are operating in a protected national park, we must ensure we do not disturb the local wildlife, peaceful surroundings and other nature lovers who may be out enjoying the mountains. Get your hiking boots on, pack a backpack with some drinks and snacks and if you have a Minirig yourself, bring it along and link it up! 

 

The Most Remote DNB Pub Quiz

Get your teams ready and brush up on your music culture knowledge! Our drum and bass pub quiz has become a common favourite of attendees to our experience and this year we’re back with a truly special edition, once again hosted by some of our favourite musicians! Taking place in a truly special, remote location, nestled in the mountains of Picos De Europa, we will be having this year’s edition in one of the most remote bars in the country!

​

Open Decks Events (Slots bookable)

As always, we will organise open decks sessions for any amateur DJs at our event to get involved in! We often have high demand for these so we will run a registration sheet prior to the event so we can organise time slots. 

 

Days of Rest, Nature & Downtime 

You spoke and we listened! This year we have tried to get a better balance between night parties, daytime activities and time to disconnect and enjoy the beautiful places we will be visiting. So, we have included “chilled out” days where we will focus on relaxing, mind & body wellness, unwinding and appreciating nature as well as some social, fun events and activities.

 

Mountain Sound Healing Sessions with Riya & Voice Mc (Bookable)

Did you know that, aside from incredible vocalists, Riya & Voice Mc are also qualified sound healers….? Yup, that is true, and this year they’ll be very kindly driving all the way from the UK with their gear so you can join in! Expect a deeply nature-connected sound healing session in the most stunning landscape you can think of…..

 

Mountain Reiki with Collette Warren (Bookable) 

Who said musicians were all about music……? Well, not Collette Warren! A qualified, experienced Reiki Master Teacher for years now, she will be offering a few sessions surrounded by the most incredible scenery we can find! Keep your eyes on our emails for more info!
 

Keep Fit with Katalyst 

….and since we’re mentioning “side-talents” to some of our favourite artists, Katalyst is also a personal trainer and physiotherapist! Bring a pair of runners and comfy clothes and come to “Wake and shake” to the most exclusive and super fun DnB fitness class at the top of the mountains!

​

The Great Excursion To…(Bookable)

Every Mountain Bass Experience so far has offered a “Great excursion to….”, and this one will not disappoint! The Picos De Europa national park is vast with areas difficult to access. Whilst we’ve done our best to take you to what we think are the best spots, there are some truly magical areas that are not easy to get to! Because of this, we will be going on a day trip to another, remote, beautiful location only accessible via high mountain trails and off road paths. We will facilitate multiple forms of access from off road motorbikes, mountain bikes, horse riding and 4x4 vehicles to join us on a magical journey through the mountains. 

 

Astronomy Sessions (Bookable) 

Last year we were all disappointed that the Astronomy Session in Sierra Nevada was cancelled due to snowy weather so we just had to try it again! Completely tucked away from cities and light pollution, this area is ideal for star gazing and astronomy! We are currently engaging a local operator to deliver us an exclusive, tailored session and will be providing more details soon!

 

Social Picnics and BBQ’s

Those of you who have joined us on our journey for the last two years already know that The Experience is more than just a trip organised between club members with a common love for music and nature - it is also a social endeavour with a strong emphasis on binding our community of like-minded people! Expect picnics, BBQ’s and all sorts of events to get us spending time together with an awe-inspiring backdrop!

 

External activities (payable to external providers)

Aside from spending time together, partying at night and enjoying nature in the day, the area has lots of super interesting externally provided activities that you can book and do! Some of our favourites include hiking tours, via ferratas/climbing, 4x4 tours, horse-riding, motorcycle tours, food & drink tastings….. You name it! Closer to the dates we will be sharing more information with you to help you find local tourist operators to keep you entertained and ticking-off your bucket list!

​

​Once activities become bookable and we have more external activities, we will email all registered members with further info!

In the meantime, if you have any questions, please feel free to email us!
