Explore Switzerland in a unique and exclusive way. Stay away from the ski resort crowds, or the noises of the bigger cities and venture into the wild. Follow me on this Saint Bernard trek, departing from Verbier, deep into the Swiss Alps.
Let us discover the wilderness of the Alps on this private trip. And what a better location than the Grand Saint Bernard. Its name came from the mythical rescue dog that inhabits these lands, as well as a 1,000 years old hospice, right at the top of its mountain pass. This incredible place lies between two colossals: Mont Blanc (4,807 m) and Grand Combin, overlooking the Alps in Valais.
The path we’ll follow will take us across rugged mountain territory, along the Italian/Swiss border. Also, we’ll cross 6 dazzling valleys, several mountain passes, meadows and a nature reserve. And of course, everything surrounded by the best views of the Alps. Furthermore, we’ll get to visit the Grand Saint-Bernard hospice, which holds a great historical significance.
Some of the spots we can explore include Bourg-St-pierre, Col des Chevaux, Col du Grand St-Bernard, Col Ferret, Combe de L’A Nature Reserve and Dranse. Then, we’ll cross mountain passes such as the Malatra pass and the Basset pass. We’ll tackle mountains like Mont Rogneux, visit charming towns like Liddes. And of course, we’ll stay at comfortable mountain huts such as the Bonatti Refuge, Mille Mountain Hut and Cabane de Mille.
So don’t let this opportunity escape. Enjoy Switzerland like you’ve never done before. Send me a request and let me guide you across this swiss trekking.
There’s also this 1+ day Canyoning in Valais and Ticino, Switzerland, that we guide as well.

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.
