On this 5-day tour, we will have the chance to explore the gorgeous mountainscapes of the Swiss Alps and also go winter kayaking on Brienz Lake.
The tour will take place around the Jungfrau Region (Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen, Adelboden, and Meiringen). We will snowshoe for the first 4 days around 4000m mountains such as Eiger, Monch, or Jungfrau. Then, on the last day of the tour, you will be provided a wet suit and we will enjoy some winter kayaking on Brienz Lake. Throughout the tour, we will stay at a Swiss house on the lake.
This tour is not technically challenging, however, you will need to be physically fit and up to the adventure! We will be there to help and guide you on the way.

Trekking Guide
My name is Andrés de la Torre and I´m on of the lead guides at Guías de Picos. I'm a Middle Mountain Sports Technician AEGM, deeply knowledgeable of the Cantabrian Mountains and Picos de Europa.
Always thinking of new and different activities, the routes I propose are not limited to walking through beautiful places... you will remember the experience for life!
With a degree in Digital Journalism, I try to organize innovative programs that value local resources and traditions.
I can not conceive the mountain without friends and I believe that there is no better experience than a bivouac under the stars.

I’d highly recommend Picos de Europa, and especially Andrés as guide. Beautiful scenery, authentic rural life and serious hiking. Andrés was really great - very helpful and fun. Don’t miss visiting his friend, Ana, in the village - best cabrales cheese and conversation guaranteed!
Excellent. Guias de Picos guided us in his last trip because he will take new post in Switzerland. He did very good job. We all enjoyed the hiking although heavy rain in first day.
We spent a great weekend in the mountains. We had pending the ascent of Urriellu peak, and on the summit, we improvised a wedding ceremony for our friends. The next day the guide made the wonderful choice of taking us to Boru peak. We were very well advised from the beginning, before and during the trip. There are thousands of things to do in Picos de Europa, so I'll be back for sure!
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
