We originated the concept of assisted "self-guided" alpine hiking tours in the mid-eighties and are proud of the extensive array of options we now provide our guests.

We have long offered all levels of challenge in a custom format. For the summer of 2008 we are delighted to offer three special packages aimed at the hiker/walker who wants to go at a slower pace and over a shorter distance..

We have designed these in response to our many clients who are no longer interested in full days on the trail and are less interested in involved terrain.

GOING EASY TREKS are designed to provide 3 to 4 hours per day on predominantly gentle trails. They link fascinating villages and charming hotels. This format offers more time for sightseeing, exploring villages, enjoying the comforts of your hotels and everything else that suits your fancy.

The GOING EASY itineraries are also slightly shorter to allow you to fit them into more extensive travel plans elsewhere on the continent.
