Trip Informations
Why you’ll love this trip
verified
Spend a week of hiking to the backdrop of snow-capped peaks, lakes, glaciers and mountain pastures – the Tour du Mont Blanc is undoubtedly one of Europe’s most iconic and beautiful long-distance treks.
verified
Sit back, relax and enjoy the view! Comfortable and clean hotels and lodges are included each night, offering hearty meals and truly magnificent views of the surrounding mountains.
verified
Take a load off – literally! Your luggage will be transferred between your accommodation each day, meaning you’ll only have to carry a day pack and your luggage will be waiting at your hotel.
verified
Soak up the beautiful scenery of the French and Swiss Alps with a likeminded small group of travellers by your side – every day brings a new gorgeous landscape! Think mountains, cable cars, vast green landscapes and (hopefully) clear skies.
verified
Focus on the hiking and the scenery, while someone else worries about the logistics. With an experienced and highly qualified International Mountain Leader by your side every step of the way, you can rest assured you’re in safe hands.
Is this trip right for you?
verified
This is a hiking trip and some of the sections are demanding. You must be fit and in good health to join this trip. Please carefully read descriptions of all hikes in the day to day itinerary. If need be, please start preparing for this trip physically 4 to 6 weeks prior to your departure.
verified
Be sure to bring the appropriate gear required for alpine hikes. See the ‘Packing’ section of the Essential Trip Information for more detail.
verified
Luggage transfer included is for 1 piece of luggage per person with a strict weight restriction of 9 kg and packed in a soft bag/duffle bag or a rucksack.
verified
This trip visits points over 2500 m, where there is a risk of being affected by Acute Mountain Sickness. Please be aware of the symptoms and let your leader know if you or any of your fellow travellers experience any.
verified
This is a point-to-point walking trip, allowing you to access remote and beautiful parts of the alps. However, this also means once you start a day’s walk, there’s no turning back – so be prepared!
verified
On this trip you must pack as lightly as possible because you will be expected to carry your own bag and although you won't be required to walk long distances with your luggage (max 30 minutes), we strongly recommend keeping the weight under 15 kg (33 lb). Most travellers carry their luggage in a backpack, although an overnight bag with a shoulder strap would suffice if you travel lightly. You'll also need a day pack to carry water and a camera for daytrips.

What an incredible trip hiking around Mount Blanc. Our guide, Edoardo, was excellent, taking time to share his passion for hiking and the beauty of the mountains. The trip was well planned out, and we enjoyed the time getting to know other adventure seekers like ourselves. It’s important to be realistic about your fitness level for this type of trip, but overall we found it a great challenge and enjoyed the sense of accomplishment that followed each days trek.

One of the best trips I have taken. The Alpine region is beautiful. Thoughtful itinerary and a knowledgable guide (Daniel Rogers) meant that we not only got to hike through this gorgeous area but also absorb a lot of the local culture and food. Highly recommend.

This was a wonderful mountainous hike, quite challenging so make sure you get lots of uphill and downhill practice before you go. We had a great guide and a great group of fellow travellers and the scenery was amazing.
