you are here: Home > Self-Guided Self Guided TripsFor those a little bit more independently minded, who would like the freedom and flexibility of hiking on their own. Self-guided trips are great for individual hikers, small groups or even larger groups.
About Self-Guided TripsSelf Guided trips are nearly identical to our guided tours, you get everything except the guides. We arrange and pre-pay all your accommodations, transfers, and most meals, and give you a detailed route description. You tell us when you want to go and how many days you want to spend on the trail. Level of difficulty and cost varies with each trip. Our self-guided trips take the hassle out of figuring out how to get there, deciding what trails are best and choosing hotels and huts and then needing to make reservations. We provide you with information on interesting side trips, what to do should poor weather hold you up and different transportation options. This allows you to start your hiking adventure with confidence and the freedom to travel at your own pace. Our self-guided trips are for one or more hikers. Our strenuous self-guided hikes are for those who are comfortable in the Alps and can confidently navigate in all types of weather and are at ease hiking on all types of terrain. We recommend hotel based self-guided hikes for those looking for perhaps easier hikes or just prefer to stay in one place at a comfortable hotel. The hotel based hikes can also include strenuous day hikes. Not only have we hiked these routes many times we hike the routes each year. We can tell you what to expect and what to do in the case of poor weather. We can save you a great deal of time by getting you straight to the hiking. We make reservations at the hotels, inns and huts so when you arrive you have a reservation. We offer hints, tips and other information to help you on your way. We have been offering self-guided hikes for 10 years and we are happy to offer a list of past "self-guided" participants who will give you honest insight. Most all our self-guided hikes are available from late June to late September. Self-guided trips are for one or more hikers. For a more detailed itinerary or to register please call.
What others have to say…"Thank you for helping us enjoy the best vacation ever! Our seven day self-guided hike was an unforgettable experience thanks to Distant Journeys. From the moment we arrived in Chamonix we benefited from your expertise and excellent reputation. All of the reservations and arrangements made by Distant Journeys for refuges and transportation was flawless, and the people were wonderful. "We look forward to similar trips with Distant Journeys and would recommend you to anyone looking for a wonderful, active and culturally rich vacation in the French Alps". Matt, Deidre and Emma Nauman, Portland, OR"…this holiday was one of the best any of us has ever had. We found that the most pleasant surprise of the Tour was the ease with which we met people from all over and the instant camaraderie that the tour brings. Your arrangements, directions and recommendations took much of the uncertainly out of the trip, while the self-guided aspect gave us the freedom to modify your standard itinerary, and go at our own pace." Charles Rebik, Annandale, NJ
