Description
Are you looking for a demanding hike in a beautiful natural area? Then this 1-day program around Mauvoisin Lake is perfect for you.
Situated in Val de Bagnes, in the Canton of Valais, Mauvoisin Lake is a reservoir in the middle of a breathtaking natural environment.
On this trip, we’ll take a trail that will lead us through the valley as well as across the construction of the dam. During the hike, we’ll explore the Giétro Glacier and learn about its history. In addition, we’ll discover different natural spots such as Lac de Tsofeiret and Col de Tsofeiret. Another highlight of the trip will be to see its alpine flora and its variety of animals, including ibex, marmots and chamois. And, of course, don’t forget the breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains!
Please, take into account that this program is difficult. It will be a long hike with an elevation gain of around 900 meters. That’s why it’s mandatory to have previous hiking experience as well as a very good level of fitness.
If you find this program interesting, all you have to do is send the request and make your reservation. I’m sure it will be an experience you’ll never forget.

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!
