Have you heard of Leave No Trace?

Principle that can be translated as : Leave no trace.

It’s a set of principles designed to minimize the environmental impact of outdoor activities, particularly in the mountains. It encourages hikers to leave natural sites as untouched as possible, by taking their garbage with them, avoiding disturbing the flora and fauna, and staying on designated trails to preserve fragile ecosystems.

Why not let yourself be surprised by our Alpine walks?

Explore typical Savoyard trails, breathe in the fresh mountain air and discover breathtaking panoramas.

Hiking offers an authentic experience, allowing everyone to reconnect with nature, while creating unforgettable memories. With its health benefits, diversity of scenery and potential for adventure, hiking is a must for all travelers looking for a unique experience.
