🌿 And oh ! Look, is it not a Chamois, or maybe a Bouquetin, or the sound of a Marmotte ?

Short hike Evolution 2 Chamonix

2/ Kind of hikes

🌿Half day on the trails

For a short hike, the half day formula is enough and allows you to have the rest of the day to discover another activity or to relax ! Here, we awake our senses….even if you are alone, with your family or friends. Let’s go on the trails for a few hours and let yourself be surprised by nature.

You can join a group (maximum of 8 people) or you can book a private guide for yourself. Whatever your choice is, the discovery of the mythical landscapes will be there and of course the view on the Mont-Blanc Massif and the Aiguilles Rouges !

You want a more precise idea ? It could be for example the Cascade de Brérard to Vallorcine hike. Perfect for a half day experience in the heart of the mountains. You will discover a beautiful expedition through the preserved landscapes of the Chamonix valley.
