The Great Treks of the Alps: Tour du Mont Blanc

The Tour du Mont Blanc is the most famous trek in the Alps. It is on everyone's bucket list!

It is an 8 to 12 day circuit around the mighty Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in the Alps.

​Starting near Chamonix in the French Alps, it has some of the most spectacular scenery in the world: snow frosted summits, beautiful valleys and pastures, sparkling azure lakes, carpets of wild flowers, the soothing sound of cow bells and easy to follow paths.

Three countries are visited: France, Italy and Switzerland.

​All our walking guidebooks include Real 1:25,000 Maps for each stage or hike. So there is no need to buy a separate map.
