The 5 Stages of a (Female) Solo Hike: Tour Des Combins

Filmmaker Kendra Slagter documents a 9-day solo trek across the Grand Tour des Combins, capturing the mental shifts that unfold while hiking alone through the Swiss–Italian Alps. Set on one of Europe’s most demanding hut-to-hut alpine routes, the film traces the stages of a solo hike—action determination, vulnerability, belonging, and fulfillment—through a female perspective. Rooted in the solo female experience, the story resonates with solo hikers, backpackers, and long-distance trekkers who’ve stepped into the unknown, navigated uncertainty, and kept walking. 🎒 Sponsored by Osprey Packs & Sawyer Products 🏔️ Trek organized by Alpenventures UNGUIDED #ospreypacks #sawyer #tourdescombins #grandtourdescombins #switzerland #italy #switzerlandhiking #italyhiking #sony #sonyalpha #sonya7iv #filmmaking #womeninfilm #outdoorfilm #adventurefilm
