The Tour du Mont Blanc is a demanding trip, but also a classic hike in some of the most beautiful mountains anywhere in the world. The rich cultural history of the area, the panoramic peaks, glaciers and alpine meadows, the windswept passes and the friendly small mountain towns all combine to make the circuit around Mont Blanc one of the premier hiking routes in Europe. The circuit is comprised of over 120 miles of trails which originally were trade routes and now link the seven valleys that surround Mont Blanc. Not surprisingly with this topography, the hiking is challenging with long ups and long downs. We will not be trekking every single mile around Mont Blanc, but we will be completing the circuit and hitting all of the best highlights.
