Our guiding service is dedicated to helping you enjoy your climbing and skiing ambitions in the Alps and in the world's high and remote mountain ranges.

We are based in Leysin in western Switzerland, which is easy to reach by road or rail from Geneva. There are excellent climbs and ski tours immediately around Leysin; and we are in easy reach of a vast amount of climbing and skiing in the western Alps, which allows us to make the most of weather and conditions.

The variety and quality of climbing and skiing in the western Alps is simply outstanding. There are famous peaks and tours, as well as other less known but equally excellent objectives. Our flexible approach, small groups and expert knowledge will ensure that your visit to the Alps is as enjoyable and rewarding as possible.

Julie-Ann Clyma and Roger Payne are IFMGA mountain guides. They are members of the British Association of Mountain Guides (BMG), the Association Vaudoise des Guides de Montagne (AVMG), and also the American Institute for Avalanche Research and Education (AIARE).

If you are looking for great climbing, off-piste skiing and ski touring we invite you to contact us.

We look forward to climbing and skiing with you.
