Description

Resting among the rugged mountains in southwestern Switzerland is the alpine village of Verbier. The world-class ski resort features front row seats to iconic Alpine peaks, such as the Matterhorn and Mont Blanc.

It is among this breathtaking backdrop that we will explore on snowshoes, an excellent alternative to skiing for discovering the snowy mountains.

I have a long record of leading groups on exciting adventures among the snow-filled mountains of Verbier. I’ll take you to my favorite spots where you can feel assured that you’ll know the very best of the region.

Verbier is part of the 4 Vallees region, along with the resorts of Bruson, Nendaz, Thyon, La Tzoumaz and Veysonnaz. That’s right, there are actually 6 resorts of the 4 Vallees! This makes it the largest skiable area in Switzerland.

If the snow conditions are good then we can start the day from the bottom of the mountain, working our way up the slopes and into remote areas. In different conditions we can take the chair lift to enter the mountains.

Witness the dramatic peaks, trek through quiet forests, and experience the serene surrounds of the great outdoors.

Get in touch now to reserve your place on a 1-day snowshoeing trip in Verbier. I’ll maximize the thrills and get you up close and personal with the Swiss Alps.

Super randonnée en famille avec Sarah, une accompagnatrice extra, ayant mille tours dans son sac pour motiver et amuser les plus jeunes. En plus de l’excellente ambiance, nous avons eu la chance de voir des paysages magnifiques sur le Valais. Et puis quel plaisir de passer une nuit en refuge avec ses enfants. Merci Sarah, nous reviendrons !
