Equally at home on the trails as around a good meal, Louis embodies mountain conviviality. Passionate about the great outdoors and always ready with a joke, this true son of the South (accent and all!) will guide you with enthusiasm and good humor. He knows the peaks of Savoy like the back of his hand and loves sharing local anecdotes, stories about the flora and fauna, and little secrets of the region. With him, every step becomes a moment of discovery… and smiles!

Management

Security

The route follows marked mountain trails, which are sometimes technical and isolated. Participants must be equipped with appropriate hiking boots, clothing for changing conditions, and a bag with water and snacks. Nights spent in mountain huts provide safe and secure accommodation, and mobile phone reception is limited in some areas. In case of emergency, the guide and the huts can contact mountain rescue services. A detailed technical information sheet is provided before departure.
