This hike over two days with a night in the Cabane des Becs de Bosson in Vallon Réchy offers breathtaking views on the Valais and an awesome wildlife experience.
From Grimentz, we will take the lift Bendolla (2130) and then walk up to La Cabane des Becs de Bosson through Lona.
The trail quite steep during the first steps, runs along Lake Lona on an open plateau, to Le Pas de Lona (2787). From there, the path goes up again and lead us to the hut (2983).
The panorama of the surrounding 4000-meter peaks is absolutely amazing and worth the trip!
The next day we will go down most of the Vallon de Réchy, a true jewel of Valais. Rock glacier, lake, gouilles, marshes and meandering waterfall. Chamois, marmots, perhaps hare, pines and spotted nutcracker. And many stories to tell…
Our hike ends at the Crêt du Midi gondola where we descend to Vercorin. From there, a taxi will take us back to Grimentz.
I particularly enjoy this hike because of…
– the views on the 4000 meters mountains of the surrounding valleys;
– the preserved nature and wildlife;
– the valley of Réchy which holds a certain magic that I rarely find elsewhere.
If you are interested by this beautiful hike, please contact me and let’s organize it together. It’s ideal for living a beautiful nature and mountain experience, with your family and/or your friends.
Moderate (900 meters of positive heigh on the first day)

The hut, Marcel, his guardian, and his small team look forward to welcoming you during the summer. Seasonal food with grilled every day and various activities organised await you there.
Some nice shots taken with a great group of Belgians (A mum and her 3 daughters) during the summer 2015.

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!
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
