Manuel Vögel

Founder of Ride and Smile

Since the age of 4, skiing and mountain sports have been some of the most important things in Manuel’s life. He became a ski teacher in 2003, and ever since, he’s been able to unite his passion and profession into a single thing. He’d been working and exploring some of Switzerland’s most renowned ski resorts when he found Davos Klosters—an unbelievable place with some of the most gorgeous views in the Alps. A perfect summer as well as a winter destination, it’s here that Manuel founded Ride and Smile, driven by the desire to show the spectacular Alps to others, either by skiing or cycling.
