Verbier
Hiking guide in Verbier
Verbier is the serious end of Swiss skiing. The terrain above the resort is steep, open and unforgiving of bad technique, which is exactly why private instruction here pays for itself faster than almost anywhere else — an hour spent fixing how you stand on a steep slope changes an entire week.
The season here runs long and the altitude holds snow well into spring. Out of season it becomes a serious hiking and trail base, with the Bagnes valley below and the Grand Combin massif in view. Winter bookings fill up months ahead; if you want a specific week in February, book it in October.
The route is chosen on the day
Switzerland has extraordinary trail signage and it still catches people out, because conditions change fast with altitude and season. Your guide picks the route after seeing the forecast and meeting you, which is the whole point of hiring one rather than following a blog post.
What to bring
Proper boots, layers, water, and something to eat. Your guide carries a first aid kit and knows what the weather is doing. If you are unsure whether your boots are adequate, they probably are not — say so when you book and your guide will tell you what to get.

Common questions
How fit do I need to be?
Say honestly what you can manage in the notes and the route is built around it. A half day at a gentle pace on a good path is achievable for most people in reasonable health.
Can we bring children?
Yes, with the route chosen accordingly. Tell us their ages — it is the single biggest factor in what is sensible.
What happens if the weather turns?
Your guide decides, and that decision is not negotiable. If the day is cancelled for safety we move it or refund it.
