This week we’re rounding that big mountain in the bag; le Grand Combin. We started from the Rhône Valley, ticked of (but stayed away from) Verbier, to climb to our hut at 2450m for a night in the Swiss mountains.

Today I went for another Bucket Project Mountain Bathing recky. Conclusion: the water is fresh, the views are stunning, the trails are exciting and the sandwich was tasty and yes I’ve found an amazing spot for a bivouac and did not get attacked by Patou dogs
Another good day in the mountains 👍
I’m looking forward to spend some time here from the 2nd till the 6th of October and YOU are still able to join us …

The Bucket Project
Striving in your work for success, recognition, to meet the desires and needs of your families, and co-workers’ families.
Always you look for efficiency, for ways to be more productive. To squeeze more in. It can feel overwhelming. It can be hard to focus. In truth it takes its toll on us and those we love.
This year’s Bucket Project is about making space, a new context where everything else gets left behind. In the still magnificence of the mountains we’ll create the slack in the system to see what really matters for you, for your work, for your friends and families.
We all need that slack. Without it we’ve nothing left for the unexpected.
Every edition we’d like to surprise you with a special night in the mountains. We don’t want to give it away, but we can tell you that this time it will be an even more special place to sleep …
Adventure is waiting, from Wednesday 2 till Sunday 6 October. And the good news is; we may have a place left for you 👍

I’ve been guiding a 6 days hike around le Grand Combin last week for and what a week it was! Today we finished with a hike crossing les Lacs de Fenêtre and an awesome view of Mont Blanc.
In 2 weeks time I will roughly do the same trip, but riding our bikes and I am already looking forward to explore these peaks and cols on the splitboard next winter….! 🤙

Let us know if you would like joining?

Goooooood morning Switzerland 🇨🇭

For our Bucket Project in October, I wanted to do a recky to discover a new area and get my bearings. I was pleased that my boys wanted to join me.
So off we went for a 3-day daddy-son Mountain Bathing adventure! We swam in rivers, slept under the stars, searched for water, frisbeed on an alpine meadow, spotted loads of wildlife (but no wolves) and above all, we had an amazing time together.
On the way down, we met a guy who worked for the nature reserve and told us that we camped close to the wolves' den. No wonder the Patou dogs were barking all night long! I have to say, those guardian dogs scare me more than wolves.
Thanks for joining me, boys; you can be proud of yourselves 👍
28/07/2024
In the summer I try to work less to play more with my boys. Today we discovered a local river and found a beautiful pool to jump into … 🤙
26/07/2024
Our traditional bivi outing with bro and cousin was pretty cool again; a bbq, a wild swim in the (wild) river and and cosy night in the trees
24/07/2024
Thanks for a great morning canyoning Nico 🤙

On the final day of our Best of the Haute Savoie week, we rode from bikepark le Tour into Vallorcine, by ticking of Switzerland.
It’s usually my favorite day, as it was for half of the group as well. Especially the newly build red trail in Vallorcine; which is just awesome 🤙
18/07/2024
An epic day riding, down 1700m from les Grandes Platieres in Flaine back to Samoens
17/07/2024
La Clusaz is always a good choice for a day riding; it has such a cool enduro bikepark!
16/07/2024
On day 3 we rode some local slippy roots, with a smile 🤙
15/07/2024
Our 2nd day on our Best of the Haute Savoie bike week was a good one! 🤙

Having breakfast at the mountainhut, watching the sun rising above le Mont Blanc massif. After a last coffee we will dive straight down into an awesome singletrack, enjoying another great day on our bikes!
On every AlpAdventure we offer, we try to squeeze in at least one overnighter in the mountains.

24h in the mountains in the mountains with 18 entrepreneurs and change makers on their yearly Alptitude event. For some a new experience by spending the night in a dorm, while others prefered a hammock.

Under the name Mountain Bathing, we left civilization behind to unplug & reconnect.
A few days away from everything, being fully present and focused on the here and now. Leaving our daily lives with all their routines behind and immersing ourselves in the rugged and pristine nature of the mountains.
All equipped with a sturdy backpack. Filled with the physical burden in the form of luggage that we (think we) need for the upcoming journey, but also the mental burden we carry with us from issues in our past. Each of us with our own story, collectively contributing to a new story that we are writing together in the mountains.
I dare to say, that it has been another unforgettable journey. Thank you all
14/06/2024
And off we go for a few days of Mountain Bathing …
12/06/2024
With 3 generations on a supply hike to refuge de Chavan. Well done all three; I’m proud of you! 👍
Ready for another Mountain Bathing adventure

It’s World Bicycle Day!
Riding our bikes in the Italien Aosta valley, with Monte Bianco in the background on probably one of the best trails I’ve ever ridden 👌
31/05/2024
‘Can you spot the refuge already?´
A mountain hike with kids needs to be playful and fun. A treasure hunt for example is always a winner. This specific hike in Aosta is great as you can spot all kinds of woodcarvings on the way up to rifugio Fallere and around the hut you wonder of the marmotttes are real or wood crafted as well
24/05/2024
Boom! One for the weekend 🤙
This might be my favorite mountain bike shot I’ve ever taken. And there is a story behind this shot as well. Rider had a crash and broke his colar bone 15mnts after this shot on day 1 of our Aosta enduro adventure …

After a cosy night in refuge de Chavan, c’est parti for day 3 … Snowshoeing up the north face, to find our way round to the next spot and episode
Let’s see what adventures day 2 will bring us …
This is a message to the Techonomy team, arriving tomorrow morning for their 5 days mountain adventure … I share some key words with you, could guys share a key word regarding the feelings and thoughts you got, regarding this weekend? That would be great; merci 👍
The snow is melting, the ski lifts are closing so it might be time to look forward to some summer adventures; what do you think ?! #bikeadventures #enduromtb #biketrip #trailshredding #singletrack #greenmountains #offthebeatentrack #bikeguide #alpadventures
I love it when a plan comes together, a wise man once spoke. But what if last minute the plan does not come together? Well that is (mountain) life, so make sur you always think about a plan B or even C. Our initial plan was touring from Chamonix to Sixt, with 2 night in the mountains. But the forecasted snow (or will it be rain?) is a game changer. Luckily my friend Claudius is happy to help out. Now we only want some fresh snow and colder températures… #letissnow #keepondancing #splitboardadventures #backcountrybasecamp #mountainhut #beadaptive #adventureiscalling
Happy Newyear everyone, in good health, loads of fun, heaps of snow (till april), awesome trails and amazing new Adventures! 👍 #happynewyear #newadventures #freshsnow #goodhealth #loadsoflove
We’ve got some nice snow above 1800m and it’s already great riding as long there is a grassy/ski slope base. Hopefully the forecasted snow from Friday will add another solid layer to start the season… #bringiton #winterishere #freshsnow #bluebird #splitboarding #earnyourturns #flakenews #powfinder #offthebeatentrack
We started our Bucket journey by conquering the via ferrata of Bellevaux. Thanks for leading us safely up @Aga, as some of needed a bit of support. Let’s see what t’row will bring…
Happy to be back at the office!
It’s spring and with the ski area closed, it is time to change ski’s for bikes to find back the greens! #summeriscoming #springtime #backonthebike #singletrack #familytime #familyshred #learn2ride
