HIGHLIGHTS

Enjoy a 'fast and light' version of the classic TMB
Take in spectacular views of Mont Blanc
Experience three countries in one week

The "Tour Du Mont Blanc Week" starts in Col De La Forclaz and ends in Chamonix. This is a trekking and hiking trip that takes 8 days. You will travel through Italy, Switzerland and France and visit Orsieres, Les Chapieux, La Palud and 3 other destinations. This is a guided small group that includes accommodation, transport, meals and others.

The Mont Blanc Circuit – also known as the Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB) – is deservedly one of the world’s classic walks, circumnavigating the highest mountain in western Europe. This exciting itinerary concentrates on some of the most spectacular sections, enabling us to produce a hard and exhilarating one-week trip for the trekking enthusiast. Overnighting in family-run accommodation, we trek clockwise around the Mont Blanc massif, enjoying hearty local cuisine from three countries, phenomenal views and some of the best walking in Europe.
