About Sella:
Sella is a fantastic place to spend your holiday. It is particularly
interesting for people who engage in walking, biking, hang gliding and
mountaineering.
Because of the mild climate in Sella these sports are practised the
whole year round. As Sella is very near to the coast, it's perfectly
possible to combine your nature holiday with a visit to the beach and
excursions to Villajoyosa, Benidorm, Altea, Albir, Calpe, etc.
Staying at Villa Pico allows you to enjoy this typical Spanish
village with its friendly people and good restaurants along with the
charm of Costa Blanca and its beaches.
Food and Drink:
You can visit one of Sella´s restaurants or bars where you can try
the typical food of this area.
In Villa Pico at request we organize paellas and BBQ´s.
Be A Shepherd For A Day:
Wander around with a flock of 100 goats on rough terrain through the
mountains, go to places where nobody else goes.
Enjoy the view, the silence, the quiet sound of the goat bells.
In the morning and afternoon we take care of the youngest goats in
the stall (they cannot walk with us yet) and eventually we milk the
adult ones. If you want you can give us a hand.
One day we do a heavy walk on rocky and steep terrain, the other day
we take it easy in olive and almond orchards. This depends on what kind
of food the goats need that day.
Shepherd Pepito Flores (58 years old, born and raised in this area)
can tell us a lot about the animals and edible plants and herbs.
Your guide for the day is Olga van Rhijn.
Olga used to be an interior designer in Holland. During a trip
through Spain (sabbatical year) she arrived in Sella in February 2003.
First she was here only for rock climbing but finally she got so
attached at the view over mountains and sea, the climate, the nature
and, most of all, the silence that she decided to stay. Now she
organizes daytrips with the shepherd. She lives together with her dog in
a 26 year old camper-van (Citroën-HY). Olga speaks Spanish, English,
German and Dutch.
If you are interested in being a shepherd for the day, it is
suggested that you some have some walking or hiking experience and have
no extreme fear of heights. You walk at your own risk. Please bring your
own lunch.
Please ask for current prices to be a shepherd for a day.

The Costa Blanca offers the biggest variety of rock climbing
experiences in Spain, and has the mildest winter climate in Europe!

Sun.

Blanca. There is so much climbing that you could easily spend a whole
weeks holiday here.
