Ten challenging but supremely rewarding walking days, each ending in comfortable accommodations with ample time to get clean, enjoy fantastic food, rest and recover for the next adventure. Three well-spaced rest days to relax and enjoy the charming towns of Chamonix, Courmayeur and St. Gervais. Breathtaking views of the Mont Blanc massif at all angles in various conditions. Life affirming moments overcoming the Cols (mountain passes). Delightful interactions with fellow trekkers from around the world, and exposure to French, Swiss and Italian cultures. Thrilling optional activities including tandem paragliding (highly recommended) and a visit to the amazing Aiguille du Midi.

French Alps Hiking Trips
Situated in southeast France in the Provence-Alpes- Côte d’Azur and Rhône-Alpes regions, summer vacations in the French Alps boast spectacular views of waterfalls, pristine forests, crystal clear lakes and the highest mountain peak in the Alps mountain range, Mont Blanc. From gentle trail climbs along the Val Veny beneath the immense glacier de Mirage to challenging ascents to the Col du Reidmatten, our French Alps hiking tours are designed to take in the best mountain panoramas.
With spectacular mountain trails, wildflower pastures and remote mountain villages to explore, hiking in the French Alps allows you to truly discover the beauty this region has to offer. Come winter time, you can try your hand at snowshoeing and cross country skiing when the meadows are covered in snow for the ultimate French Alps tour.

Lawrence Leclair Tour du Mont Blanc Hotel Trek
David Handcock Tour du Mont Blanc Hotel TrekWe recently completed the Tour, having waited a few years after a ‘covid cancellation’ and whilst being fortunate with the weather (there were high temperatures before our trip and heavy rain afterwards), we enjoyed it immensely. The physical challenge was huge, perhaps not unexpectedly and the scenery utterly beautiful. If I could sum up our experience I’d say that our previous two major treks were in the Himalayas amongst mountains almost twice the height but this did nothing to lessen the majesty and sheer beauty of the Mont Blanc region. Any disappointments such as too much shopping for lunch and a poor hotel experience in St Gervais were minor niggles.
