Hiking with friends or family with a Mountain Guide.

Details of the activity

A mountain guide is a professional who guides hiking enthusiasts on footpaths, along rivers but also on snow on snowshoes or with their feet in the water. Its role is also to make its hikers aware of the environment. He has a state diploma in mountaineering-accompaniment in the medium mountains. The mid-mountain guide organizes for his public hikes of one or more days, for which he provides the right session. Its role is to ensure that the difficulties of the course are adapted to the level of the participants. In summer, the mid-mountain guide leads individuals or groups through the rural mountain area on marked paths or off-trail in safety. In winter, he travels the snowy mountain, most often with snowshoes on his feet. Note: the mid-mountain guide never evolves on terrain that requires skills and techniques related to mountaineering: rope, harness... He leads hikes according to the appropriate techniques (orientation in the fog or in the snow , identification of obstacles, teaching of progression techniques, etc.). Its role goes beyond supervising sports activities. The mid-mountain guide introduces walkers to the riches of nature, heritage and the people present in the mountains covered. It is through the flora, fauna and mountain habitat, in his knowledge that he shares the history and culture of his region, while sensitizing his public to environmental issues.
