Description

Enjoy a fantastic hike in the wilderness on this snowshoeing program across the Vallon de Javerne in Switzerland.

Situated in the municipality of Bex, in the Swiss Canton of Vaud, Vallon de Javerne is a mountain pasture that belongs to the Bernese Alps. It’s a natural area of immense beauty and a great place to explore. I invite you to discover it on this 1-day program.

From Bex, we’ll put on our snowshoes and enjoy going through the wonderful forest of this easy route. While snowshoeing, we’ll have the pleasure to see some of the local flora and fauna, including spruce tree forests with lovely birds. Once in the pasture, we’ll contemplate some of the fantastic surrounding peaks from the range.

Although this route is not very challenging, take into account that it requires a good fitness level. Consider that we’ll spend 6 hours on our hike and face an elevation gain of around 500 meters.

So, would you like to take part in this outing to the amazing Vallon de Javerne? Then all you have to do is send your request and contact me, so we’ll begin making all the arrangements for this trip.

Another option could be this snowshoeing program that I lead in Moléson-sur-Gruyères, also in the Swiss Alps. Check it out!

About the guide

Cyrille

Mountain Guide

I was born in Bramois on June 26th, 1983 and I have been a certified mountain guide since 2005. I grew up in a sportive and mountainous family, so since I was a child I have traveled the mountain just walking or skiing.

At the age of 12, I started participating, with my brother Didier, in a climbing camp. Therefore, discoveries and passions were connected, first climbing, then mountaineering and at lastly ice climbing.

After attending commerce school, the guide aspiring course done at the age of 19 and a tourism manager certificate, I started working in the guide profession, while keeping time to travel and enjoy my passion with my wife Noelie.

To improve my skills, I have also studied one year to get the Technician Paramedic certificate.
In 2011, I joined the rescuers-guides team at Air-Glaciers, at the same time I became the class leader in the training of Swiss guides.

Currently, still passionate and motivated, I am glad to be your companion in the most beautiful Alps routes or to discover new and remote regions.

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
