This itinerary circumnavigates Mont Blanc and explores the surrounding alpine region.
Faced with postcard images from every vantage point, the scenery and landscapes that unfold before you are simply remarkable. This trek affords unsurpassed views of the different faces of the Mont Blanc massif along routes that traverse the Balme mountain passage and the highest point on the Tour du Mont Blanc, the Grand Col Ferret at 2537m.
You may see Ibex, chamois and other wildlife as you descend through alpine meadows towards charming fairy tale-like villages.
Crossing the foothills of the Alps through France, Italy and Switzerland provides an opportunity to encounter the alpine cultures and cuisine unique to these areas and staying in hotels, gites and refuges is a great way to soak up the warm hospitality for which this region is renowned.
