Itinerary

A comfortably paced guided walk between Italy and France taking in the highlights of the Mont Blanc region. Specially devised for hikers seeking a less demanding experience on the classic Tour du Mont Blanc, this itinerary combines rewarding alpine hiking with time to appreciate the landscapes and culture along the way. In the company of a small group of like minded companions and a bilingual guide, you traverse high passes, meadows brimming with alpine flowers and make your way through typical mountain villages, taking in the celebrated vistas of the Mont Blanc region. There is ample time to stop and take in the stunning scenery, enjoy a picnic of local ingredients and absorb the alpine culture as you make your way to the next accommodation. While this is a more relaxed approach to the full Tour du Mont Blanc, it remains a rewarding moderate-grade alpine hike requiring a good level of fitness.

Gran Paradiso Guided Hike trip - alternative tour available

Gran Paradiso Guided Hike

Head deep into the Aosta Valley on foot to experience the rugged alpine beauty of the Gran Paradiso National Park. Deep in Italy's Aosta Valley on the border with France, is Italy's first national park, so declared by King Victor Emmanuel III in 1922 in the tradition of his grandfather who had named it a Royal Game Reserve in 1856 to protect the ibex and chamois populations. As a direct result of this decree, encounters with these animals occur daily in Park, in the valleys and high on alpine passes. With much of the walk over 2000m (up to a maximum altitude of 3152m), it is not suprising that the scenery is exceptional with views to Mont Blanc, Monte Rosa and the Matterhorn ranges from the high passes and lookouts encountered. Rugged valleys carpeted in wildflowers, rocky snow covered passes and glacial lakes are typical of this alpine paradise. At night the hosts of the rifugi (mountain refuges) welcome you with good quality mountain cuisine and a dining room brimming with atmosphere.

Mont Blanc Encompassed Guided Hike in Huts

A guided version of the classic circumnavigation around the highest mountain in Western Europe. There is something unique about a circumnavigation of the Mont Blanc massif on foot. Perhaps it is a feeling of exhilaration from being immersed in some of the most beautiful mountain scenery on earth while a quaint village is only a few hours away.

This is trekking at its most civilized! The route is always inspiring, ambling through flowering meadows, dipping into old oak forests and breaking out above the tree line into high alpine pastures which showcase the snowy peaks of the Mont Blanc Massif.
