Chile Hiking Tours

My recent trekking adventure around Mont Blanc was nothing short of spectacular, a truly unforgettable journey through some of the most breathtaking landscapes on Earth. Every turn offered a new vista, from the majestic snow-capped peaks to the vibrant alpine meadows, all bathed in the crisp mountain air. The sheer scale and beauty of the scenery were truly humbling, making every step a joy.

Equally commendable were our wonderful group leader and hosts. Their warm hospitality and the delicious, hearty meals they provided after long days of trekking were a highlight. Each meal was a culinary delight, offering a true taste of local flavors and providing the perfect fuel for our adventures. This trip was a perfect blend of challenging trekking, stunning natural beauty, and genuine human connection. Highly recommended!

Hui Dai Mont Blanc Hiking Highlights

Chamonix and the Mont Blanc massif are truly one of the world’s alpine splendors. The peaks and alpine glaciers envelop the valley with a gorgeous and stately majesty. The Mont Blanc Highlights ended up being the perfect level of challenge for me, with daily hikes of 6-8 miles and more importantly, 2,500-3,000 feet of elevation gain to an altitude of over 7,000 feet most days. Make sure you are in good condition and have good climbing boots so that you can enjoy the views with minimal discomfort. Our Chalet Chalupa was a nice home for the week, with Carol and Sebastien providing daily meals and comfy beds to allow recovery for the next day’s adventures. No laundry facilities here – take what you’ll need for the week. Our hosts also ferried us around in vans to each day’s hike start point where not supported by the valley’s excellent transit system. All the trails are very well maintained and the views – from someone who always thought the Yosemite Valley was the quintessential hikers paradise – the Mont Blanc massif just has to be seen to be believed. Life changing.

Great week of scenic and challenging mountain hikes led by Adrian who is an extremely fit, enthusiastic and knowledgeable mountain guide leader with a great sense of humour! Based a short bus ride outside of the pretty town of Chamonix in a lovely catered chalet, which is hosted by the amazing Sebastien and Carolina , who provided a clean, comfortable and friendly home from home environment during our stay. They kept us extremely well fed and watered. There were fresh baked croissants for breakfast and a delicious cake or pastry waiting on our return in the afternoons, followed by a delicious home cooked three course dinner. They also did a great job ferrying us around to trailheads and bus stops in the minibus.
