Tripcode: TWB

The classic Tour du Mont Blanc, probably the most dramatic walk in Europe

A group waiting for the Flegere cable car in the Mont Blanc region

The Tour du Mont Blanc links the seven valleys that surround western Europe's highest mountain, offering an unusual variety of spectacular scenery and varied walks in a two-week holiday. The route crosses three borders (from France into Switzerland, then into Italy and back to France), climbs over six passes, traverses beneath huge glaciers, and meanders through beautiful alpine meadows and picture-book villages. Throughout the trek we are rewarded with splendid views of some of the Alps most beautiful peaks; Mont Blanc (4810m), Aiguille Verte (4122m), Les Drus, Grand Jorasses and many more.
