Stephan Siegrist was born in 1972. He grew up in Meikirch, Switzerland, a village in the Bernese Mittelland, from which, in good weather, there is a great view of the Bernese Alpine landscape. After finishing school, he initially trained as a carpenter. However, as the mountains increasingly captivated him, a ski tour sparked his passion, he decided on further training \u2013 as a mountain guide. Since the age of 26, he has earned his living as a professional alpinist and mountain guide.<\/p>\n
