🌲 My Story…
It all began when my friend Rodg and I, at the age of 22 and 24, travelled to Canada for the first time.
With Jack London’s stories in our minds, we set out to experience the northern wilderness on our own.
No plans, just the will to live outside as long as possible – adventure, solitude, and wild nature.
We fished, hunted small game, and boiled water for our daily needs.
The wilderness became our school, nature our greatest teacher – lessons that still shape me today.
🏔️ About Me
In 2014, I decided to complete the training to become a certified Swiss Hiking Guide (SBV / ASAM- SWL). A decision that changed my life.
Since 2016, I’ve been guiding people of all levels through the beauty and challenges of the Swiss Alps.
My passion for nature, the mountains, and authentic outdoor experiences is what I share on every tour.
Whether you’re looking for a relaxed walk, a multi-day hike with overnight stay, or a wild bivouac in a remote alpine setting. I’ll make sure it becomes a meaningful, unforgettable experience.
