Join Sarah, UIMLA certified mountain leader, in this 2-day snowshoeing trip and get in contact with the winter natural environment of the Combins massif!
Alps
2 Days
Jan - Mar, Dec
I invite you to join me in this beautiful snowshoeing hike in the Combins range, in the Alps. This is in fact one of my favourite hikes.
It's an opportunity to wake up in a mountain hut. Then to wake up in the true alpine environment of the Combins massif. We will be facing the famous Verbier ski resort.
This tour is adapted in particular to enjoy the animal life of the mountains in the winter. In addition, we will see and discuss the melting of the glaciers and its consequences.
Does this snowshoeing trip in the Alps sound tempting? Then please contact me and let's plan together these 2 days!
If you only have 1 day, we can go Snowshoeing in Bruson in Valais!
Ascent to the Cabane Brunet from the Lourtier parking. Overnight in the mountain hut.
D+ 800m
Duration 3hs
Ascending above the mountain hut until the Goli des Otanes. From there we enjoy incredible views of the Combins Massif.

Mountain Leader
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.

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!
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
