Take a Walk on the Spectacular Side.
Bespoke guided treks in the Alpine countryside featuring adventure, incredible scenery and immersion into a culture as diverse as the terrain. From the Italian Dolomites with their unique foods and wines to the lofty peaks of Switzerland and Austria, or the quaint mountain villages of Alpine France — choose your destination and let us craft a once-in-a-lifetime experience tailored to your abilities and desires. We’ll guide you off the beaten path to connect with the mountains on a deeper level.
Huts. Hotels. And Everything in Between.
From high alpine refuges to charming old-world hotels to mountain huts where the hospitality is as warm as the fire in the hearth, there’s no shortage of choice places to stay.
Chain hotels are nowhere to be found in this part of the world, but incredible lodgings are — often in little-known villages where you’ll feel like a local.
But we know them — and you will too.
Take a deep dive into a cultural experience you won’t find on any package tour.
You might hear lively accordion music during the Fête de l’Alpe, or see alpine cattle parades as farmers guide their herds in colorful processions.
You’ll learn about the history, the people and the mountains as you trek through places little changed from centuries ago.
Fewer Crowds. More Culture.
The history of mountaineering is etched into the stone walls and cobblestone streets of villages all over the Alps.
Places like Zermatt, Chamonix and Cortina d’Ampezzo are just the beginning. We’ll guide you off the beaten path to villages with fewer crowds but a world of authenticity.
Charming Villages
Food With a View
After a day of adventure on the trail, you’ll need a hearty, nourishing meal. In every village or mountain hut, you’ll enjoy mouth-watering farm-to-table cuisine as well as local specialties from Swiss fondue to Italian pasta; crispy Austrian schnitzel to the Alpine cheeses of France.
Sample Trips
An endless supply of pastoral valleys, 14th-century castles, charming hamlets and forests so pretty you’ll swear they’re enchanted.
The Dolomites have a massive footprint and we ensure you find the best views and culture. You might do a through-hike, then hop a train, board a funicular or ride a horse-drawn carriage to the next locale.
Italian Dolomites
The Hikers Haute Route famously connects Chamonix and Zermatt.
We make sure you enjoy more culture, culinary highlights, local gems, charming villages and off-the-beaten-path tarns, lakes and glaciers along the way.
This trek along the highest peaks in Europe will also introduce you to fabled French and Swiss cuisine.
Hiker’s Haute Route
Ok, it’s not the Alps, but the food, culture and comfort in Sicily are tough to beat — you just need to know where to look.
We’ll show you an amazing volcanic archipelago filled with history and ruins, mountainside ocean views, barefoot beaches, ferry rides, and night skies illuminated by cascading lava.
Magnifico!
