BESPOKE ALPS HIKING ITINERARIES

Private Guided Hiking Adventures in the Alps of Switzerland, Italy & France

There is nothing like a summer hiking adventure in the Alps, a true fairytale experience. Trails and cobblestone routes built centuries ago have stood the test of time. From the lush valleys dotted with vineyards and small farms, to the high-alpine meadows filled with edelweiss and crystal clear lakes, there are routes for all abilities. And you’re never far from a mountain-top restaurant or hut to rest your legs and enjoy a glass of wine or a meal.

 

What is so unique about the Alps is the balance between the vast wilderness and certain luxuries. In a day, we can be far from civilization, traversing a glacier under the Matterhorn, and then rest comfortably in a 5-star hotel by night. Come discover the Alps, the birthplace of alpinism; live out your summer fairy-tale with an Epic Europe hiking trip.

 

Hiking Guides: All of our hiking trips are lead by a local guide, familiar with the routes and ways to extend or shorten if required. They are passionate about the destinations, the culture, history, food & wine and look forward to sharing all of this with our guests.

  • “The team at Epic Europe created the most incredible trip for us, where everything came together seamlessly, and we never had to think about what came next - it just magically happened as if it was meant to be. That takes real talent, and they make it look easy." - B.N., WY USA
  • "Epic Europe has coordinated several corporate events for us over the past 5 years, and I cannot imagine a more professional operation to handle all of the details. From a team-building event for 50 people in a 17th-century castle atop a mountain pass, to marketing conferences and catalog shoots, their knowledge of the best locations in the Alps is second-to-none, and they are as good as it gets at being creative." - E.P., Lugano CH
  • "I would have to say that Verbier and Zermatt might be the best places I have ever ridden a mountain bike, and I couldn't imagine going without the help of Epic Europe's guides. It was a dream trip for sure." - B.S., PA USA
  • "Our family spent last Christmas in Zermatt on a bespoke Epic Europe ski trip. The special thought and care that they put into our holiday made it our best yet." - L.M.; CA USA
  • "I have done trips in the Alps and surrounding regions with Epic Europe for the past 4 years, and every one has been unique and surpassed the last. The experiences that they deliver due to their personal relationships are a window into the real life in these incredible locations, and they share these friendships with us." - K.B., CT USA
  • "Epic Europe's custom road biking trip that they put together for my buddy's bachelor party was great - the right combination of killer rides, great hotels, and outstanding restaurants. Great guides, and overall a perfect trip." - A.S., London UK
  • "Hiking in the Alps has always been on my bucket list, but I wasn't sure that a typical trip was my style. Epic Europe designed a custom route for our group, staying in the best little inns and hotels, and we felt like we had the trails to ourselves. I will come back again and again to explore new trails with their guides every year that I can!" - R.B., NY USA
  • "A day of heliskiing in Italy culminated with a sunset run off the Breuil saddle of the Matterhorn - one of the most thrilling runs of my life - and we left our tracks in a place where they remained for a week afterward, reminding us of the best day of skiing in our life!" - WG, CT USA
