Juliette Q.
Juliette has been a trekking guide since 2007 and lives close to Chamonix, where she leads MT Sobek’s Tour du Mont Blanc adventure and several other summer hiking trips.

Juliette has a legendary smile and possesses deep local knowledge, which pairs well with her hiking experience and strong leadership qualities.
Noemi D.
Noemi grew up in the Carpathian mountains of Romania but life brought her to the south of the Alps twenty years ago. Throughout the years, she has traveled to the four corners of the world and in 2013, while on a year-long journey across the globe, much of it spent on her sailboat, she decided to pursue her dream job and became a mountain leader. Ever since, she has shared her passion for the mountains with clients from all over the world.
Julien L.
Julien's educational background is steeped in natural science. He is a trained French biologist and agronomist with a passion for exploring and sharing the wonders of nature. Based in Cordon, near Chamonix, he has conducted research across Europe, with a particular interest in European wildcats. With more than 15 years of guiding experience in the Northern Alps and Norway, Julien brings expertise, enthusiasm, and a deep love for the outdoors to every adventure. An avid adventurer, he enjoys long-distance walks, including completing the Pyrenees Haute Route and thru-hiking New Zealand. When not guiding, you'll likely find him hiking, running, or mountaineering in search of his next great challenge.
