Personalized Hike Planning Services

Let’s create your own wanderweg!

Planning an adventure in Switzerland and feeling…overwhelmed?

Trust me, I’ve been there.

Anyone who has organized a hiking trip knows that finding a great trail is much easier said than done. The process can involve hours of researching various trails (and in Switzerland, there are a LOT of trails - over 65,000 kilometers of them). And then, even more hours cross-checking with things like mountain websites, topography maps, trail conditions, and transit connections. All just to find that perfect hike! Plus, if you’re coming from abroad, navigating the logistics of hiking in a foreign country can feel pretty daunting.

So, that’s where I come in.

Hi, I’m Alex 👋 I’ve been hiking in Switzerland for over six years, and I’m here to help. 

I can take the stress out of planning and help you discover the best of the Alps. I specialize in crafting personalized Swiss hiking itineraries, tailored to your preferences and hiking levels, to help you have a great time in the mountains. My expertise lies in guiding you to unique, lesser-known routes, which offer a more authentic and immersive hiking experience. If you are looking for local gems, off-the-beaten-track trails, and epic multi-day hut-to-hut adventures, you’ve come to the right place.

Let me handle the research and planning so you can enjoy the ultimate Swiss hiking experience. I offer the following services:

  • You know that feeling when a friend says, 'Hey, I know someone who lives there—you should talk to them!'? That’s what this “ask me anything” call is. You’ll get 45 minutes with me to ask anything on your mind about hiking in Switzerland, like: What’s staying at a mountain hut really like? Is it easy to map my own trails? What do you think of this town for a base? Is it safe for a woman to solo hike?

    *This call is a flat fee of $50.

  • Get an personalized introduction to hiking in Switzerland with a 60-minute consultation call. You’ll be asked to fill out a brief pre-call survey, so that I can tailor the session to your needs. We'll discuss trail options, hiking regions, and tips to help you get started planning your own adventure. If you decide to book the full planning service afterward, you'll receive a reduced price on the package.

    What’s Included:

    • 60-Minute Call: A video call to give an overview of hiking in Switzerland, and to discuss your hiking experience and preferences.

    • Post-Call Resources: Essential information on hiking in Switzerland, including a summary of what we discussed and personalized recommendations.

  • My complete hiking planning package is perfect for those looking to embark on a multi-day hut-to-hut hike or several days of individual hikes in Switzerland. This service includes booking reservations at mountain huts.

    What’s Included:

    • 60-Minute Initial Consultation: A video call to give an overview of hiking in Switzerland, and to discuss your hiking experience and preferences.

    • Custom Hiking Itinerary: Detailed routes created using top hiking apps (SchweizMobil or SwissTopo). If required: hut bookings, with reservations in your name.

    • Informative Documents: A customized document with all your trail details, packing suggestions, regional insights, hut etiquette, emergency tips, and more.

    • 60-Minute Follow-Up Call: Review your itinerary, walk through essential apps, discuss hut policies and answer any other questions.

    *Payment of hut accommodations are not included in the package price.

    *Please note: If you would like to stay in mountain huts, I recommend that you start planning at least 6 months prior to your travel date.

  • Want an exciting and memorable team-building experience? I offer customized half or full-day hiking itineraries for groups of all sizes, anywhere in Switzerland. This service is available throughout the year, with the hike tailored to suit the season.

    • Self-Guided Option: Receive a comprehensive itinerary and expert tips to ensure a smooth day.
