Itinerary

Traverse three countries and some of Europe’s most awe-inspiring landscapes with the “Tour du Mont Blanc Camping Trek.” This 15-day guided trekking tour circles the mighty Mont Blanc, passing through France, Switzerland, and Italy. Designed for experienced travelers ready for a challenge, the route covers rugged alpine meadows, glacier views, and picturesque villages.

Ten days are dedicated to trekking, interspersed with three carefully placed rest days in charming towns—Courmayeur, Les Contamines, and Chamonix—where you can unwind in spas, explore markets, or try paragliding. Nights are spent camping in comfort, with spacious tents, hearty three-course meals, and baggage support provided. The trekking itself is demanding, often involving long days and multiple mountain passes, but the spectacular scenery and camaraderie of a small group make every step worthwhile.

The tour’s main activity is trekking, highlighted by expert mountain leaders and seamless camp logistics. Its standout feature is the immersive camping experience, allowing you to wake up to breathtaking views not accessible from hotels. For those seeking a classic European trekking adventure with comfort and camaraderie, this trip is truly exceptional.

Challenging trek around the Mont Blanc Massif

This camping trek was challenging with many beautiful vistas. The mornings were busy so that we could start moving by 7:45 or 8:00. We had many 1000 meter accent days with similar descents. Our weather was hot most days which added to the challenge. We sometimes used lifts to get up or down, especially in the Chamonix valley. Our guide, Egle was very calm with a lovely smile to help us along. Albert, our camp organizer kept us well fed and was always ready to offer any help we needed. We had an excellent group of mostly very experienced hikers. The two nights without showers meant we had to wash as best we could. Overall an excellent experience.

Brilliant trek

This is a fantastic trek - doing it in June meant there was still some snow on the route and lots of wild flowers, including orchids. We camped in some great locations with the most stunning mountain views.

Well worth the challenge

This was a challenging trip, but well paced. Every long climb was rewarded with spectacular views, and often a cake at a refuge. It was great to be part of a large, friendly group - everyone helped each other out with the camp pack down in the mornings, and encouraged each other along the way. The satisfaction of completing the circuit, and being able to look back at the mountain passes we'd covered was huge.

Epic views and a great challenge - Loved every minute of it!

This is an excellent trek. Definitely a challenging hike as you are either going up or going down - both can be as tough! This tour is definitely worth the challenge though - the scenery is spectacular every day of the hike! Exodus have organised a great trek, with welcomed rest days in between hiking days. The campsites are great - a couple of wild ones with little amenities, however this gives you the opportunity to bath in the rivers to sooth those tired feet!
