Hiking Tours

Our tours take you to the Alps' most iconic landscapes and some of Europe's lesser-known mountain regions, drawing on more than 30 years of hiking experience. Depending on the itinerary, each tour is based in two or three carefully chosen towns or villages, allowing us to explore the surrounding mountains without constantly changing accommodation.

Each day begins from one of these base locations, but no two hikes are the same. We plan every route according to the group's fitness, the weather conditions, and the highlights of the local landscape. One day may take us to the foot of a glacier; the next may follow an ancient mule track through alpine meadows to a centuries-old mountain village.

With a maximum of four guests per guide, we can tailor each day’s hike to the group’s pace, fitness, and ambitions. Groups of more than four guests are accompanied by a second guide.

Whenever possible, we avoid the crowded trails featured in every guidebook. Instead, we rely on decades of local knowledge to explore quieter paths, forgotten valleys, and viewpoints that reveal the mountains at their very best—whether it's the perfect perspective of the Matterhorn, the evening light on the Sassolungo, or a hidden alpine path known only to locals.

Most tours are offered as scheduled small-group departures, but every itinerary can also be arranged as a private tour. To explore our destinations, select a region from the Destinations menu. If you would like a private tour or a customized itinerary, simply visit the Contact page and get in touch.

Multi-Day Trekking

A mountain hut at the end of a long day on the trail — the unique camaraderie of alpine trekking.

For those who want to experience the mountains with real depth, multi-day trekking is the answer. Covering dozens of kilometers over several days, our long-distance routes take you through complete mountain ranges — from one valley to the next, through passes and over ridges, sleeping in mountain huts and waking to views that never repeat.

Our signature multi-day routes include the Tour du Mont Blanc ( France/Italy/Switzerland), the Dolomites Crossing in Italy, the Hight-Tatras Traverse in Poland/Slovakia, the GR221 Dry Stone Route in Mallorca, and the Camí de Cavalls in Menorca.

All of our multi-day treks are offered exclusively as private experiences and are tailored to each guest or group's interests, fitness level, and ambitions. To begin planning your trek, simply visit the Contact page and complete the enquiry form.

On all our multi-day treks, we offer a luggage transfer service. You carry only a day-pack with your essentials; your main bag is transported to the next accommodation by vehicle. This makes the experience accessible to a much wider range of fitness levels.

Guided vs. Self-Guided

We offer both guided and self-guided formats for most of our hiking itineraries. Guided tours are led by an experienced hiking guide on every day of the trek, with a second guide joining the group whenever there are more than four participants.

Our self-guided tours are designed for hikers who enjoy the freedom of exploring at their own pace. They include detailed route notes, GPS tracks, pre-booked accommodation, luggage transfers where applicable, and remote phone support throughout the trip.
