At the age of 5, I was already saying that I wanted to become a mountain guide to the despair of my mother...
As a child of Evolène, and descendant of a line of guides, I practiced ski racing until I was 19. I was determined to climb the peaks around me and, driven by curiosity, to travel the world and its mountains. 
My passion took me to the Himalayas and to North and South America on several occasions. In our Alps I have climbed all the 4000m and done many great races.
When I became a Mountain Guide, I wanted to share my experience and my passion by taking my clients to make their dreams come true in summer and winter.

Pierre de Gué workshop - Evolène
site

"Leaving one bank for the other is a journey
Imagine a torrent, a ford to cross. A few stones invite you to pass. They are neither completely flat nor completely balanced. Put one foot after the other gently and move forward...
Each step is a step towards yourself. To get there, accept who you are, discover your richness and resources, be confident, willing and above all ... curious. 
The Creative Diary® is a playful, creative and introspective method to intuitively move forward and welcome the unexpected. "Journal" refers to the intimacy of the process, to its regular (even daily) practice and to the medium (a notebook or bound notebook).  "Creative" evokes the use of colours, images, words and textures. So many mediums to be combined to let a creation flourish. It will then be up to you to observe and explore in search of a meaning, a new path, an idea, a lead, a choice.
You don't need to be an artist or writer.
We are all naturally endowed with creativity.
The Creative Diary® is a unique space to take care of ourselves and to celebrate life at its most painful and most wonderful.

Buvette de Mandelon
site

De mi-juin à mi-octobre, Alexandre et son équipe ont fait de cet endroit, un lieu de rencontres où se mêlent convivialité et authenticité entre locaux et visiteurs. Au fond du Val des Dix, une route d’alpage, d’accès aisé, mène à l’alpage de Mandelon et sa buvette.

La buvette fait la part belle aux produits du terroir : rösti maison, fondue, planchette de l'alpage, croûte au fromage sans oublier les desserts maison de Nicole.  La spécialité : les mignons de porc aux morilles. Le must : la fondue Glareyarde à partager entre amis sur réservation. A l'automne, une carte de mets de chasse. 

La terrasse de la buvette bénéficie d’un magnifique panorama jusqu’aux dernières lueurs du jour d'où l'on peut observer les marmottes et assister à la rentrée des vaches. 

A l’intérieur, une trentaine de places dans une ancienne chotte réhabilitée en buvette-restaurant dans un esprit terroir. L’ancienne chaudière de l'alpage trône au milieu de la pièce et les tables ont été fabriquées à partir du plancher des écuries, ce qui leur donnent une teinte toute particulière (urine de vaches oblige !!!)


Durant la saison d'alpage, de fin juin à fin septembre,  vous trouverez une boutique "vente de fromages" avec sérac, tomes et fromage à raclette. 

 



En hiver, la buvette ouvre les week-ends du Vendredi midi au Dimanche après midi (sauf mauvaise météo). On peut y déguster une délicieuse soupe du chalet après une rando-raquette ou profiter de son offre Raquette & Raclette.

Buvette de Praperoz

En hiver, c'est le point de rendez-vous  des skieurs "peaux de phoque" en attendant le ski-bus retour, une pause bienvenue au retour d'une belle randonnée en raquettes au Val des Dix ou une journée de ski de fond à Pralong. Proche de la buvette de Praperoz, vous trouverez le téléski de Leteygeon et son jardin des neiges pour s'initier aux joies de la glisse. 
 

Le bon plan : 

Pour les amateurs de ski de rando, un itinéraire sécurisé partant du sommet des remontées mécaniques des 4 vallées vous permettra de rejoindre la buvette. Un service de navette (ski-bus Pralong-Les Masses) vous ramènera ensuite au départ des installations des Masses.

La petite restauration met à l’honneur les produits locaux. En saison et selon l’arrivage, il est également possible d’acheter des tommes et du sérac de l’alpage de Mandelon à la Cabane.
Le gardiennage est assuré par des bénévoles durant l’été.
Accessible à pied ou en voiture, elle est située dans un cadre magnifique au cœur des montagnes valaisannes.
