The famous Tour of Mt Blanc - 13
days
|
||||
| This world-famous hiking tour takes us 10 days
as we pass through the Swiss, Italian and French Alps. These 3 facets of Mont Blanc are quite different and we explore three different cultures, languages, history and even geography. |

Starting from Chamonix, we use hotels and mountain huts so that we can eat and sleep in style after a day's hiking in this, always spectacular, scenery with Mont Blanc itself (4,810m, 15,780ft) looming above us. |  fresh water |

This classic adventure is a counter-clockwise circumnavigation of the Mont Blanc mountain range. In the 10 days we walk over 160km (100 miles), using mostly old drover's and mule tracks. We pass through dramatic scenery; different in each of the three countries which share the massif: Switzerland, Italy and France. | ||
| The satisfaction
of completing one of the world's great walks is enhanced by our comfortable
accomodation and the wide range of traditional food that we can sample, during this classic hike roun Mt Blanc. Hotels are 2*/3* wherever possible and our back-up minibus provides daily support in case of difficulties. On average we hike for about 5-7 hours each day and climb 800m (2,600ft) |
