Mont Blanc trekking
As its name suggests, it is a circular route around the highest and most emblematic summit of the Alps. Place of stories and alpine feats that will immerse us in a dream through historic trails, passing through villages and mountain huts dream through 3 countries: France, Italy and Switzerland.
During the tour you will be able to observe a number of glaciers that surround the great Mont Blanc, such as the glaciers of Brenva, Miage and Brouillard towards the southern slope and Bionnassay, Taconnaz and Bossons to the north.
It is a mid-mountain route that does not involve climbing or summit ascents, suitable for people who have some mountain or trekking experience. The maximum height reached is the 2,665 m of the col de la Fenêtre d’Arpette (optional step as there is another route that goes through the valley). We will pass through mythical passes, viewpoints and forests. A total of approximately 100 kilometers and a cumulative elevation gain of more than 13,000 meters.
The tour can be done in 8 days, with the possibility of extending it to 10 days.
