Summer 2025

Looking forward to summer hikes, see below especially the brand new "REICHENBACHTAL DISCOVERY" (27th - 30th Sept), 4 days trek between Meiringen and Grindelwald. 

Our mountains can teach us about the history and evolution of our earth, our atmosphere and its recent changes, small and delicate ecosystems, even reveal past events. 

Join the trek and experience "the power of water" and its interaction with gorges, glaciers, nature and human activities!

Note:

N. of participants: typically max. 6-8 pp. In case of larger groups, might be possible to arrange engaging multiple guides.

In most cases the arrival point is different from the departure point. The goal is to enjoy the most when being outdoors, with the possiblity to customize the trek routes. For these reasons no fixed end time is listed, suggesting to avoid cars and rather relying on Swiss public transportation for a more flexible experience.
