Hiking together is simply better.
Many people love hiking, but not always on their own. With the SagaTrail hiking meetup you find fellow hikers for shared tours, meet new people and discover Switzerland together with others.
The finest hikes are experienced together.
Whether a spontaneous day hike, new hiking friendships or regular group tours: being on the trail together makes many hikes more varied and can provide additional safety, especially on longer or more demanding routes.
Together on the trail
Share views, encounters and special moments with people who also love hiking.
Additional safety
On longer or more demanding tours in particular, hiking together can provide additional safety.
