Looking for a beautiful natural area to go hiking? Then follow me on this 1-day program in Val de Bagnes and discover the spectacular landscapes surrounding the Chamonix Trail.
Situated in the Swiss Canton of Valais, Val de Bagnes is a stunning valley in the middle of the Pennine Alps. On this trip, I invite you to take the lift in Verbier and go across this area by taking the Chamonix Trail.
This path will lead us through beautiful lakes and mountains to the Cabane de Louvie, a mountain hut at an altitude of 2,250 meters above the beautiful Lac de Louvie. The views from this point will be breathtaking! Then, we’ll descend to the village of Fionnay and take the bus to Le Châble, near Verbier.
Although it’s not mandatory to have prior experience, take into account that it’s important to be physically fit to take part of this trip.
So, do you think this hike would suit you? Then please, send the request to book your place and get in touch with me. I’ll be glad to be your guide on this hike around Val de Bagnes.
Another interesting hiking option in the area could be these programs from Verbier to Zermatt or Grand Saint Bernard. Check them out!

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.
