Was Teilnehmer sagen

Wunderschöne Wanderung in Les Giettes in der Schweiz im August. Sehr angenehmer und interessanter Führer. Dankeschön Boudewijn

I loved the hike "In the footsteps of the Passeurs of 39-45 int the Risoud"! For someone who isn't a great fan of walking, I found the route quite accessible and enjoyable. The guide's explanations of the historical context were fascinating, and I'll remember the fondue at the "Rendez-vous des sages" for a long time to come. A must for anyone who loves walking and history.

My 15-year-old son and I were lucky enough to discover the Risoud forest with Boudewijn, with its flora, fauna, geology and magnificent landscapes, but above all its long history as a cross-border region and in particular the very difficult period of the Nazi occupation in 1940-44. Boudewijn was a perfect guide who, through his speeches, his in-depth research and the many visual aids he had prepared, was able to fascinate us and introduce us to people who behaved heroically and other players in this part of history that everyone should know about. We were 'immersed' and it was a very moving experience to share with all the participants in this highly original walk. And the superb cheese fondue we shared in the middle of nature was a much-appreciated extra. I can't recommend this wonderful experience highly enough.

Dear Boudewijn, thank you very much for the good and informative tour. The stories about absinthe and the refugees of the 2nd World War in the Risoud forest were fascinating and took us back in time. And let's not forget the fine fondue at the end.

Wir haben eine schöne zweitägige Wanderung mit Boudewijn unternommen und im Hospiz St. Bernard übernachtet. Eine wunderbare Gegend, die man mit einem sympathischen Bergführer erkunden kann - vollgepackt mit Wissen über Flora, Fauna und Geologie. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Thank you Boudewijn, it was really a great training day !

Es war ein sehr bereichernder Tag und ich danke Boudewijn von ganzem Herzen dafür, dass er (einen Teil) seiner Leidenschaft für die Berge weitergegeben hat. Bis bald für den nächsten Teil! Paola

Ich habe an diesem Tag viel gelernt. Boudewijn, unser Lehrer, ist leidenschaftlich und das merkt man. Außerdem ist die Umgebung perfekt zum Lernen. Ein Kurs, den ich allen Wintersportlern empfehlen würde, die sich über die Gefahren in den Bergen bewusst sind.

A wonderful day full of theoretical and practical information. A true realization! All this in an excellent atmosphere and a beautiful mountain philosophy ;-) I can only recommend this course. Thank you very much for this moment of sharing and enrichment.

You'll get immeasurably more from any trek if you seek out local guide and qualified mountain leader, Boudewijn van Doorn of Peak2Peace.

His passion and knowledge about the area's geology, terrain, environment and wildlife make him an essential for any mountain-escapade at any time of year.

The Passeurs hike in the Risoud is one of the most fascinating forest hikes I experienced. The coloured and couragious personalities that worked for the resistance and intelligence services during the war that the guide introduces along the way are becoming alive during the day, and eventually it is as if they walk with us. Visiting the different hideaways and secret passages is a treat in itself. Fantastic and highly recommended !

Boudewijn ticked all the boxes for a good guide, sharing knowledge, adding context to the destination, describing natural history and geology, and offering insights on contemporary issues. He also made great lemon and ginger tea!

J'ai adoré la randonnée "Sur les traces des passeurs de 39-45"! Pour quelqu'un qui n'est pas un grand fan de marche, j'ai trouvé ce parcours plutôt accessible et agréable. Les explications du guide sur le contexte historique sont passionnantes, et je me souviendrai encore longtemps de la fondue au "Rendez-vous des sages". A essayer absolument pour les férus de marche et d'histoire.

Pierre è stato con la mia classe di quinta elementare per un'intera settimana. In questi giorni Pierre si è dimostrato un attento professionista, preparato, serio e molto attento alla sicurezza. Pierre ha spiegato ai ragazzi e agli adulti le funzionalità dei vari strumenti e ha provveduto a equipaggiare anche gli accompagnatori con materiale di prima qualità. Pierre oltre ad avere indubbie competenze tecniche è una persona disponibile, instancabile e che ha dimostrato di possedere abilità sociali invidiabili, creando una bella relazione con tutti i partecipanti del corso.
Complimenti, è raro trovare delle figure così professionali e al contempo così piacevoli. GRAZIE!

Primo trekking con peak2peace. La professionalità a farla da padrona per aiutarmi a realizzare un sogno in totale sicurezza e tranquillità !!
Grazie Pierre Crivelli

Petit message pour partager le plaisir que j'ai eu d'être accompagné et encadré par Pierre pendant 6 jours sur les hauteurs tessinoises de la Via Alta Vallemaggia. Un accompagnement soutenant, sérieux et professionnel. Je me suis senti guidé sans craintes dans des terrains engagés, à la recherche de mes limites personnelles et des beauté des paysages de la montagne intacte et authentique. Une expérience que je vous invite à faire :-)

Ho particolarmente apprezzato la bellezza dei paesaggi, la scelta accurata del percorso, l'ottima organizzazione e l'elevata professionalità sempre dimostrata. E' stato un viaggio emozionante e mi ha lasciato tante belle immagini nel cuore. Grazie a Pierre ed al suo team!

Paesaggi mozzafiato, compagni di viaggio allegri e disponibili.....un gruppo affiatato alla scoperta delle nostre meravigliose vette.
Grazie a Marea e Pierre per averci fatto sognare per 5 indimenticabili giorni.
A presto per una nuova avventura.

Trekking dei laghetti organizzato in modo perfetto da Pierre. La messa in sicurezza in alcuni passaggi sul percorso così come l'organizzazione in capanna (aperitivi, cene, pernottamenti) è stata esemplare. Avanti così.

Panorami mozzafiato, impegnativo fisicamente
