Thomas Oschwald is always looking for new challenges and adventures. A regular companion is his stand-up paddle, with which he has already covered quite long distances. For example, he paddled from the mouth of the Rhine in the North Sea over 1200 km against the current to the source of the Rhine. When the alpine Rhine was too strong, he walked to the source by foot – challenge accepted. In Norway he paddled with the SUP to the North Cape in the icy winter time. Whether over the water or on foot to the next mountain, Thomas documents his adventures skillfully on photos and videos.

Raphael Richard and Stéphane Hottinger: "The mountains brought us together back in the 90’s and still hold us together to this day. The mountains allowed us to fulfill our dream(job): mountain guiding.

For over 10 years we worked as mountain guides in Verbier, when we decided to try our luck as entrepreneurs. Through our website we now offer worldwide travel experiences as well as local skitouring outings, climbing weekends, alpine courses and all other things that can be undertaken with a mountain guide. As professional mountain rescue members we also offer avalanche, mountain safety, crevice recovery and rescue courses.

It’s our goal and wish to spend as much time as possible with our clients in the greatest spots on earth with our main priority in mind: their safety."
