Welcome to the website of Julie-Ann Clyma and Roger Payne for:

• courses in summer climbing and mountaineering

• treks, rock climbs, and snow and ice climbs

• ascents of alpine summits

• expeditions

If you are looking for great climbing and mountaineering, or if you want to learn or improve your skills, or go an expedition, you have come to the right website (if you are looking for winter activities we also have a winter programme).  Please look through our activities and calendar and send us your enquiry or booking.

We are based in Leysin in western Switzerland, which is easy to reach by road or rail from Geneva. There are excellent climbs, treks and mountains immediately around Leysin; and we are in easy reach of a vast amount of great climbing in the western Alps.  There are many famous peaks and tours, as well as other less known but equally excellent objectives.

Our great location, expert knowledge and flexible approach allows us to make the most of the conditions and weather, helping to ensure that your visit to the Alps is as enjoyable and rewarding as possible.
