How hard are the runs you do?

That’s largely up to you! We offer tours with different levels of difficulty, as explained in our Grading System. Usually there’s no rush, and you can fast-hike many of the routes, or test your mettle against the verticality of the Alps, and arrive early for lunch at the next hut. But remember that the Alps are steep, and the trails are often technical, so you’ll normally be covering fewer miles in a day than you are used to. You can see how we grade our tours here.
