Guided Tour du Mont Blanc
Tour du Mont Blanc: The spectacular Mont Blanc Circuit Trek is one of the world’s classic hikes and probably the best mountain walk in Europe.
We will take you across 3 countries, 7 valleys, 71 glaciers, 400 summits… Culminating at 4810m, the Mont Blanc range is home to the highest mountain in Western Europe and offers breathtaking scenery!
Trekking around the Mont Blanc offers amazingly diverse landscapes: inviting forests, lush alpine meadows, mineral barren land, gushing streams, plunging waterfalls, powerful glaciers, and snow-capped peaks… often all in the same day!
As you hike from hut to hut, ascending mountains and passes,
crossing valleys and borders, you will also discover the rich and diverse traditional mountain culture, architecture, food, and way of life.
Tour du Mont Blanc involves 7-9 hours hike along steep and at times rocky mountain trail, and up to 1300m ascent per day. This trek is demanding and is a self-supported trek, so you will have to carry your backpack with all that you need for the 8 days on the trails.
Participants need to be in good physical conditions and to train seriously for it beforehand. This Tour du Mont Blanc is guided by a professional English and French-speaking International Mountain Leader who will ensure you are in safe hands and well looked after, and who will bring the trail to life with stories and information.
