Challenging trek around the Mont Blanc Massif
This camping trek was challenging with many beautiful vistas. The mornings were busy so that we could start moving by 7:45 or 8:00. We had many 1000 meter accent days with similar descents. Our weather was hot most days which added to the challenge. We sometimes used lifts to get up or down, especially in the Chamonix valley. Our guide, Egle was very calm with a lovely smile to help us along. Albert, our camp organizer kept us well fed and was always ready to offer any help we needed. We had an excellent group of mostly very experienced hikers. The two nights without showers meant we had to wash as best we could. Overall an excellent experience.
Most Inspirational Moment
Seeing everyone in the group complete the trek.
Thoughts on Group Leader
The group leader, Egle, was excellent. Very fast when required, always looking out for the group.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Train for 1000 meter ascent days and make sure your footwear is good for varied terrain.
