A word from your guide

Hello, I'm Pascal, a mountain guide in the Northern Alps. If hiking for you isn’t just about following a trail crowded with other people, if you’re looking for an immersive and meaningful experience in the heart of the mountains, or if you want to diversify your hiking adventures but are hesitant to go it alone, I’d be delighted to offer my services! With me, there are no set schedules planned months in advance for large groups. I prefer to work with you and your hiking companions to create your very own adventure!

Description of your future experience

Camping is the best way to experience the mountains up close and personal, while respecting the exceptional natural environment around us. But it’s also possible in winter, inside an igloo we’ve built for the night. You bet! And contrary to what you might think, you don’t get cold inside—provided you follow some fairly obvious guidelines.

In short, we set out from the meeting point and hike on snowshoes until mid-afternoon. Then, once we find a suitable spot, we build our igloo, spend the evening there, and sleep inside. The next day, we have breakfast and go for another snowshoe hike before heading back to the cars.

The app I've been waiting for for years.

"I'm speechless. This is the app I've always dreamed of having! A way to meet people and have unique experiences. I've already done 2 experiences: a bivouac at 2000m altitude + a tasting in Burgundy. It was incredible."

“Finally, an app for travelers who hate being tourists! Meet People is like having a local friend in every city. Thanks to the app, I met passionate local guides who showed me hidden gems, secret restaurants, and shared stories no guidebook ever would. The experience is seamless, and the 'matches' are thoughtfully designed. It's an intelligent blend of technology and genuine human connection, perfect for those who want to travel differently.”
