★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 12 reviews · from $53Best value

Meet guide Dimitry at Valencia’s Serranos Towers for a five-hour trip to Almedíjar and Sierra Espadán. Taste local goat and sheep cheese, then hike 12 kilometers through cork oak woods, gorges, and mountain viewpoints. The first two kilometers are steep, so bring good fitness, water, and a picnic lunch.

“An excellent day with an excellent guide, Dimitry. Allows you to choose your own pace which suited me fine. Beautiful hike into the hills with wonderful views. Hard work at first but never rushed, leading to a gentle descent. Recommend.”

5.Snowshoe Trek with Fondue and Wine

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3 reviews · 3.5 hours · from $213

Join Oul Adventure for a 3.5-hour snowshoe outing above Montreux. Oul, also called Raoul by some guests, adapts the route to your ability and conditions. Snowshoes, poles, tea, fondue, wine, and train travel through the Riviera-Pays-d’Enhaut area are part of the experience.

“Vu que la météo n’était pas parfaite, Raoul nous a donné l’option d’un tour plutôt „sauvage“ dans la forêt. C’était comme dans un compte de fée 🌲✨🧙‍♀️ et il nous a fait la fondue dans une toute petite cabane enneigée au milieu de la forêt. Il était un tour guide génial et extrêmement gentil et on le recommande à toute le monde.”
