The normal advice is not to sleep more than 500m higher than the previous night. If you are young and fit you may be able to push that limit, but with a group of 8 you may have to be willing to travel at a rate everyone can accept. Don't underestimate altitude sickness, it can kill.

Thanks Tomkat.
500 meters of difference in altitude between departure and arrival is very little, in Spain that is normal within a radius of 100 km.
I think that 1000 m is an acceptable difference, and even more considering that we come from Barcelona and we will have crossed some 3000 m passes and many days of travel.
