Description

Bring along your whole family and enjoy a fun and didactic nature scavenger hunt, around the verdant countryside of the beautiful town of Gruyeres, in the canton of Fribourg.

This exciting game is based on a  survival course in the wild and it’s all about finding food in a natural environment. Participants must make a choice at each post, that may cost (virtually) the life of one or more players. If you pass the test, with or without loss, you get the indications to find the next post.

This fun and didactic scavenger hunt allows to tackle several topics such as map reading/orientation, botany, geology, wildlife, alpine economics, mountain sociology and creativity.It is a great way to discover and explore by playing and having fun.

In addition to arrange the logistics and take care of your safety throughout the activity, my role as a guide will be to bring the correctives and/or explanations after you make a choice during the game, so that everyone can learn and discover some unknown or little known aspects of our rich alpine Gruyerian heritage.

So are you in for this fun activity with your kids? Just send me a request, book your spot and get ready for a great day around Gruyere! You can check out my profile page for more hiking tours and family-friendly activities in Switzerland.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
