Every mountain adventure is more than just a physical challenge; it's an opportunity to connect with nature and rediscover ourselves. We believe that physical preparation is crucial, but so are emotional strength, mental clarity, and spiritual connection. These four pillars support and guide us in every step of the way.
We want to be your loyal companion on this journey, offering talks, workshops, and training programs to ensure that every step you take is firm, safe, and full of purpose. Because the true greatness of the mountain is not measured only in altitude, but in the depth of our decisions and the care we put into every movement.
Contact UsThe story of this project is inspired by the life of Josep Nadal Gesti, a passionate mountaineer whose legacy lives on through his family, and in the teachings of the great Masters Serge Raynaud de la Ferrière and José Manuel Estrada Vázquez. This project combines ancient wisdom with a deep love for the mountains, seeking to educate and prepare today's mountaineers for a safe, conscious, and holistic experience in nature.
Serge Raynaud de la Ferrière, founder of the Universal Great Brotherhood, was a visionary who dedicated his life to spreading a philosophy of integral living. Born in Paris in 1916, he obtained multiple academic degrees, including Mining Engineering, Medicine, Psychology, Theology, Philosophy, and Biology. De la Ferrière founded the Universal Great Brotherhood in 1948 in Caracas, Venezuela, and was a fervent promoter of the interconnection between science, art, philosophy, and spirituality.
His teachings encompass yoga, astrology, vegetarianism, and physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual culture. In the field of yoga, he promoted balance and harmony of body and mind, highlighting the importance of regular practice for holistic well-being. In astrology, he taught how cosmic cycles influence human life, providing tools for self-knowledge and personal evolution. He also advocated for vegetarianism as a foundation for a healthy and ethical life, contributing to the well-being of the individual and the planet. His holistic approach also included promoting a culture that integrated physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual development, always seeking harmony and the integral growth of the human being.
Serge Raynaud de la Ferrière made numerous journeys and pilgrimages, including a visit to the Kumbha Mela in Haridwar, India, and a possible visit to the foothills of Mount Kailash in Tibet. He also traveled through Burma, Siam, and other Far Eastern countries before reaching Australia. His literary legacy is extensive, with notable works such as "Yug, Yoga, Yoghismo," "The Great Messages," "The Black Book of Freemasonry," and "Art in the New Age," among more than 100 works.
José Manuel Estrada Vázquez also made numerous travels and gave lectures around the world, including visits to 4 continents, where he promoted projects of human and cultural re-education. His impact on the audience was significant, helping many to elevate their quality of life and awaken a greater spiritual consciousness. Estrada Vázquez emphasized the importance of physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health as an integral unit of the human being. His teachings included the practice of yoga, vegetarianism, meditation, and cosmic ceremonial, with the aim of fostering a balanced and conscious life.
Josep Nadal Gesti, businessman, mountaineer, adventurer, and skier, lived a life full of passion for nature and sport. Despite his passing at the age of 40, his legacy endures through his numerous achievements and the life philosophy he shared with his brother, Alfons Nadal Gesti, and passed on to his son, Jordi Nadal Aloy. His love for the mountains and the desire to explore new horizons led him to conquer beautiful landscapes and wonderful routes, always with a focus on safety and preparation.
Although I did not get to know my grandfather, his entrepreneurial spirit in business and in the mountains, passed on by his brother and his son, my father, has been a constant source of inspiration for the creation of this project. His dedication to mountaineering and his adventurous spirit drive us to promote safety, awareness, and holistic well-being in every expedition.
Inspired by my grandfather's life and the teachings of the great Masters Serge Raynaud de la Ferrière and José Manuel Estrada Vázquez, we seek to continue his legacy. We take my grandfather's love for the mountains as a family legacy and apply the wisdom of these Masters, who were an example of congruent living, to humbly contribute to their mission in spreading their comprehensive proposal for the re-education of the human being. We promote respect for nature and, above all, meticulous preparation, integrating the safety and holistic well-being of the person in every expedition. Our mission is to foster conscious hiking and mountaineering that encompasses not only the physical aspect but also the emotional, mental, and spiritual dimensions of each individual.
Join us in this noble mission. Together, we will transform every mountain adventure into a safe, enriching, and deeply human experience. Here, every life counts, and every mountaineer deserves to return home with a success story and a life lesson.
