Hiking with the Saint-Bernard dogs

Hikes with the St. Bernard dogs at the Grand-Saint-Bernard Pass offer an unforgettable and unique experience for nature and animal lovers. Accompanied by an experienced guide, these hikes begin at the Grand-Saint-Bernard Hospice, located at 2473 meters of altitude, and extend around the pass, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. Hiking with the St. Bernards is not just a sporting adventure, but also an opportunity to interact with these legendary animals, famous for their historical role in saving travellers lost in the snow.
