In small groups on the glaciers
Glaciers, huge and majestic masses of ice that carve their way through the mountain valleys. Many a hiker has looked at them in astonishment, dreaming about standing on the ice, walking along them. We make the dream come true, hiking on a glacier is no wizardry if you know how, when and where. You will experience the mountains from a totally new perspective.
