Meet the guide

Meet the guide: Fabian Pihl

With seven years at Langley in the Mediterranean and the Alps, I’m a guide who enjoys turning a regular holiday day into something a bit more adventurous, always with safety and a relaxed vibe at the core. Since 2021, Chamonix has been my base, and I know the valley beyond the obvious viewpoints.

I enjoy guiding international groups where everyone feels included and comfortable. 

Languages:
• English
• French
• Swedish

From active days like via ferrata and canyoning to slower moments in nature, my goal is simple: to create fun, easygoing and memorable days in the mountains.
