Översikt

Admire spectacular views of Mont Blanc from the iconic surrounding trails

If you enjoy the comfort of a bed every night, we offer the Mont Blanc Circuit as a fully accommodated walking holiday, with all nights spent in a variety of lodgings from family-run two- and three-star hotels to basic inns or pensions. We include 10 walking days and three rest days, in which we cross the borders of Switzerland, Italy and France and enjoy unrivalled views of the Alps and Mont Blanc itself. The itinerary follows the same route as our camping version (trip code TWB). With your qualified International Mountain Leader (IML) guiding the way, you will complete the famous circuit, and your baggage is transported for you by our support vehicle. We offer the comfort of a bed in quaint, picturesque accommodations on route so you can enjoy your walking holiday in comfort. In most places we use a hotel for just one night, before moving on the next day; occasionally we settle in for a few nights and use local transport to take us to the next point of the circuit.

  • 10 days point-to-point walking with baggage transfers
  • Eight days challenging and two days moderate walking
  • Altitude maximum 8,323ft (2,537m), average 5,003ft (1,525m)

Food
Included in the trip are all breakfasts, 10 picnic lunches and 12 hotel/restaurant dinners. Lunch is not provided on the free days (7, 11 and 14) or both transfer days. On days 7 and 14, dinner is also not included and needs to be bought locally. We take our evening meals in the hotel in which we are staying or in a nearby restaurant. These meals are usually arranged as a menu for the whole group and, as they are based on special negotiations made by us, represent better value than eating independently. Please note that should the times of flights change to arrive earlier, or depart later, additional meals will not be included. Please also note that no refund will be given for meals not taken or taken other than where designated. Typical meals Continental breakfast: this will normally include coffee, tea, hot chocolate, French bread, croissants and conserves. Lunch: picnic lunches generally include bread, cold meat, cheese, tinned fish, fresh salad and fresh fruit. You may wish to bring (or buy locally) snack bars for an extra energy boost during the day. Evening meal: we endeavour to make dinner something to look forward to, and each day there will be a freshly prepared menu for the whole group, consisting of a soup, salad or similar, a main course of meat, fish or vegetarian served with a selection of vegetables and carbohydrates, and a dessert. Beer, wine, bottled water, other drinks, coffee or tea are not included in the price of evening meals taken in restaurants. Vegetarians: We happily cater for vegetarians but please inform us at the time of booking. Vegans: If you adhere to a vegan diet, you may find the variety of food offered to be limited, since veganism is relatively uncommon in this region.
Weather

From late June to early October, fair weather is to be expected, but all mountain ranges create their own weather patterns and the Alps are no exception. It can and does rain and it can be surprisingly cold at times, especially on the high passes. Expected daytime temperatures are in the range of 15C-25C (59F-77F) in the valleys (although it can sometimes reach 30C/86F in July/August), 5C-15C (41F-59F) on the passes (though it will feel colder if wet and windy) and 5C-15C (41F-59F) in the valleys at night; possibly a little lower early and late in the season. There is always the possibility of lying snow, especially in the early season, and snowfall even in August and September when we may find new snow on the passes. Please note that on late-season treks (September) the days are shorter and we will need to make early starts to make the most of the available daylight hours.

Is this trip for you?

This trip is graded Activity Level 4 (Moderate/Challenging) – it involves 10 days of walking; two days at a Moderate level and eight days at a Challenging level.

Most of the days are long, quite often involving an ascent of 3,000ft-4,000ft (900m-1200m), equivalent to three to four hours walking uphill, followed by a similar descent. Although the paths are well maintained there are sections that are rough underfoot. On day 2 there are two metal ladders to descend en route from Lac Blanc, these are secured against the rock, consist of approximately 12 steps and are not difficult to climb. The route throughout is non-technical, however we will be walking mountain paths throughout and this trip is not advised for severe vertigo sufferers.

Please be aware on days 6 and 8 we take a short bus transfer to avoid trekking on busy roads.

Most people trek the Tour du Mont Blanc anti-clockwise. From years of experience we have discovered that trekking the route clockwise allows for quieter trails and avoids a tough ascent over the first couple of days. The views and walks are still just as beautiful in this direction.

As this is a group holiday you need to be confident that your fitness will allow you to enjoyably walk at a consistent and steady pace that matches the group average, therefore allowing the group to finish the day at a reasonable time. You will also enjoy the trek a great deal more if your fitness allows you to walk the route in relative ease. A Challenging graded day would be equivalent to walking between three to five hours uphill and a similar time descending downhill, so up to nine hours in total depending on the pace (including breaks). Due to the lower altitude, climate and overall comfort of this trek, it is graded Level 4 (Moderate/Challenging). The Activity Level reflects the overall endurance of the trip, not just the ease of any particular walk. Other treks with a higher Activity Level, requiring a higher overall endurance due to their remoteness, lack of facilities or average weather etc, may have shorter, easier walks. Please read the daily itineraries below when making comparisons to other walks/trips you may have done before.

If you are unable to walk during the itinerary and want to opt out of a day, please take note that this can sometimes be a little tricky depending on where on the circuit you are. To reach the next point you will need to take a public bus (which run at limited times) or taxi (which can be expensive in a more remote location). Our support vehicle is not suitable for taking passengers, so please be aware of this when deciding to book this trip.

All ascents, descents and distances listed have been measured by our local partner using satellite-based mapping software. Please note, GPS measuring devices can give differing results, especially in mountainous terrain and on winding paths.  Measurements stated throughout these trip notes are given to help you understand the types of terrain and distances you will encounter. Timings stated include lunch and photo stops and will vary depending on the pace of your group.

Your main luggage will be transported for you between accommodations but please note that you will be expected to carry this to your room.
