Bespoke guided hiking in Provence, the foothills of the Alps and the Southern French Alps

2024 is going to be a great year for hiking.....let's do this !

The trail less travelled. Are you ready for a hiking adventure ? Away from the crowds and well-trodden paths, I'll guide you through a tapestry of breathtaking vistas and authentic natural landscapes. Along the way, I'll introduce you to the fascinating flora and fauna that call these mountains home. From vibrant wildflowers painting the meadows to elusive mountain wildlife enjoying quiet tranquility, not to mention the local history - we'll walk in the footsteps of the ancients as we discover hidden rock dwellings, ruined forts and forgotten villages all of which give a fascinating backstory to our hikes. 

Leave behind the ordinary and embrace the extraordinary. Join me, Hilary Sharp (hiking guide and author) to discover the best kept secrets of the Alps and Provence

"Thank you Hilary for the wonderful trip! It was great to see you again. I love your trips because I know we will go to wonderful places that we would never find on our own. Your knowledge of the areas is fantastic and so appreciated! It makes the trip really special - truly a one of a kind adventure."  Val 2023

"I cannot begin to tell you how much I have loved my holidays with you. Right from the start I felt in safe hands, you definitely gave me confidence, whilst also having some real adventures, spectacular scenery and off the beaten track exploring.  Our last trip was my favourite when it all came together in a perfect combination of wonderful weather, fantastic scenery, accommodation and company. We all laughed our way through the week. Memories to cherish! You should be proud of what you have achieved and proud of the love of the mountains that you have passed on to so many other people, particularly me!" Mel 2022
