Tour du Mont Blanc Hotel Trek

Starting out in the Chamonix Valley, this superlative walking holiday makes a complete circumnavigation of Mont Blanc and its satellite Alpine peaks. Walking firstly into Italy and then Switzerland, the trekking route follows beautiful Alpine valley trails and walking up and down steep mountain paths.

Our walking route also leads us to climb to a succession of scenic and challenging Alpine passes, including the high point of the circuit at the rocky Fenetre d'Arpette (2670m/8,757ft). Lower level highlights include the vibrant Italian Alpine resort of Courmayeur and the charming Swiss village of Champex.

As a terrific final day addition to this classic walking holiday around Mont Blanc in the Alps we include the trek to the summit of the Brevent (2525m./8,280ft), for unmatched views of Chamonix, the Aiguille du Midi and Mont Blanc itself. We use a good standard of hotel accommodation throughout and our vehicle back-up means that group members need carry only a small daysack. Suitable for regular hill walkers looking for an Alpine trekking adventure around Mont Blanc, this holiday provides a fantastic introduction to long-distance trail walking in the Alps of Europe.
