Description
Follow me on this hiking program and discover the dazzling natural spots inside the Canton of Valais, in southwestern Switzerland.
La Tzoumaz is a very popular ski resort in the Swiss Alps in the Canton of Valais. Here is where our trip around the breathtaking landscapes of Switzerland will start.
If you join me on this 1-day program, we’ll follow a trail that will lead us to Lac des Vaux, a beautiful lake that offers astonishing views. During the hike, we’ll explore different natural spots such as Vallon d’Arbi where we’ll be able to see part of the local fauna. Additionally, another place that we’ll visit while hiking will be the Bisse de Saxon channel and its surroundings.
Please, take into account that it’s important to have some prior hiking experience as well as a very good level of fitness.

Setting off on an adventure on a whim, without a precise plan, walking according to desires and emotions, pushing further to discover what a summit or a ridge reveals. Trained as a business lawyer, then manager of a large sports store, biathlete and trail runner, it was my job as a guide that ultimately allowed me to establish a more structured and secure framework for my wanderings, but without ever losing my wonder and my curiosity. It is with this state of mind that today I like to travel and share the mountains here and elsewhere, preferably roaming, in order to give us time to soak up the landscapes which evolve over time, days and seasons.
I will always be happy to set off on the classic tours, but above all I strive to guide you off the beaten paths.

What people are saying about -Sarah

Frankly, Sarah Kleinknecht is what you dream of having when picking a guide and it is my pleasure to provide a review. My 76 year old mother and I recently went on a 5 day trek through the Alps and it was nothing short of perfect. Sarah is able to perfectly speak 3 different languages however I would argue that her ability to communicate the needs of her clients is her most fluent form of expression. She was easily able to adjust daily excursions depending on weather/ability and planned a life changing adventure. My mother, who as stated is 76, had a perfectly planned course of hikes/trails with challenging yet achievable objectives. Even more so, Sarah is low key a celebrity within the Alps having worked there over 20 years and knew everyone! We were warmly greeted like old friends everywhere we went. She is a positive yet stern guide who keeps safety first yet is always able to provide a laugh. Without a doubt, I would highly recommended Sarah!
