FILTER ACTIVITIES
Short on time or looking for a gentle introduction to the mountains? Our half-day hikes are perfect for exploring local trails at a relaxed pace. Take in breathtaking views of the Lake Annecy area, discover the tracks and signs of Alpine wildlife, or end your day with our signature Sunset Apéro Hike as the sun goes down. Led by a qualified mountain leader, you’ll enjoy an enriching and accessible outdoor experience, ideal for families and nature lovers alike.
For hikers seeking wide-open spaces, our full-day adventures take you far beyond the beaten path. Conquer iconic peaks such as La Tournette, explore the Bauges Regional Natural Park, or discover the authentic charm of the Aravis Mountains, starting from La Clusaz or Le Grand-Bornand. Your qualified mountain leader sets a comfortable pace, shares insights into the region’s fascinating geological heritage, and ensures your safety on challenging sections of the trail. A perfect blend of physical adventure and breathtaking scenery, offering a chance to reconnect with what truly matters.
Exploring Haute-Savoie and the Lake Annecy area is an incredible adventure, but the mountain environment requires specific knowledge and experience. Hiring a qualified mountain leader allows you to fully enjoy your hike without worrying about route planning, navigation, or changing weather conditions. You’ll benefit from professional guidance, with each route adapted to your fitness level and safety as a top priority, from the foothills of the Aravis Mountains to the peaks of the Bornes Massif.
Beyond the physical challenge, our guided hikes offer a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the Alpine ecosystem. Learn to understand the landscape, identify local flora, and spot chamois, ibex, and marmots in their natural habitat without disturbing them. Our commitment to responsible tourism means favouring quieter, less-travelled trails, helping preserve the tranquillity of these wild landscapes while offering you a truly authentic mountain experience.
To make the most of your adventure, having the right equipment is essential. We recommend suitable hiking boots or shoes (low-cut or high-cut depending on the route), a comfortable backpack, plenty of water (1.5 to 2 litres per person), sun protection, and a windproof or waterproof jacket.
Alpina Trekking offers a wide range of hiking experiences, from gentle family-friendly walks to more challenging routes for experienced hikers. When booking, your mountain leader will help you choose the adventure best suited to your interests, fitness level, and hiking experience.
