Description

This trip is a must-do for all mountain hiking enthusiasts! Faithful to the myth, Mont Blanc is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and impressive mountains in the world. This hiking tour will lead you from France to Italy to Switzerland in order to experience the towering Mont Blanc massif from a variety of perspectives. Our route takes us over high passes, through deep valleys, and in and out of quaint European mountain villages. The views are breath-taking with innumerable alpine peaks and stunning glaciers surrounding the impressive Mont Blanc massif constantly in the background. This hike is quite demanding, however guests only carry a light daypack each day. In the evenings, you will enjoy French and Italian cooking, paired with a hearty serving of Swiss hospitality in the traditional alpine villages we stay in!

Looking to stay longer in the Chamonix Valley and explore? We have you covered with a 2-night, Chamonix Add-on Package that includes admission to some the most iconic sights and attractions Chamonix has to offer. All activities can be done on your own schedule to allow you the freedom to relax and enjoy this portion of your trip however you desire. We also include a day pass to a luxurious spa for those looking to maximize their relaxation and recovery after their trek.

Meals: What to Expect

This Alps hiking tour features a combination of in-town meals and meals prepared by your guide. Most lunches are prepared on the trail by your guides. In addition, we provide you with an assortment of trail mix, snacks, and dried fruits to eat at your own discretion.

It is common in the Alps that restaurants do not allow groups to order from an a la carte menu; a set menu is created, and guests do not have the option of ordering differently from the set menu.

We can often accommodate vegan, vegetarian, kosher and non-gluten diets and make adjustments for food allergies. These and other special dietary requests may require an additional fee, and in some destinations may be more difficult to accommodate than others. Please inquire with us for more information about the specific trip you’re interested in.

Lodging: What to Expect

Our trips in the Alps offer the opportunity to enjoy the wonderful lodges, inns, and chalets that European mountain villages are famous for. The historic, cultural lodging (and dining) experience of the Alps is a major highlight of these trips for many guests!

There are some unique elements to the accommodations that are important for guests to understand:

  • Most beds are twin; no queen- or king-sized beds are available. Sometimes the twins are pushed together to form a double, but sometimes they must remain separated. If you would like to share a bed, it may not always be available.
  • Occasionally, we have rooms that accommodate 3-5 people. Please understand you may be asked to share one of these rooms for 1-2 nights of your trip with other members of the group, and in some cases the arrangement will be mixed gender.
  • Some hotels do not offer ensuite rooms so bathrooms may be either shared with other guests in the hallway, or you have a private bathroom down the hallway.

Please see the Accommodations section for more information.

Safety Precautions

Your safety is our top priority. Our hiking tours are led by professional hiking guides, all of whom are wilderness-certified first responders or EMT’s, each with years of guiding and wilderness experience. Guides adhere to standardized risk management protocols in case of any potential or actual incident, and all tours carry an emergency communication device and comprehensive first-aid kit. Additionally we have a “24/7” system through which guides or guests can reach Wildland support personnel at any time.

In the interest of your safety, it’s important to refer to the Center for Disease Control website for up-to-date recommendations on immunizations before your trip.

Essential Eligibility Criteria

Essential Eligibility Criteria (“EEC”) have been specifically identified to help you understand the skills and abilities necessary to participate on each Wildland trip, and they apply uniformly to all potential trip participants, irrespective of the presence or absence of any disability.

Once you identify a trip in which you may be interested, please carefully review the EEC and itinerary details. If after reviewing the EEC that apply to your desired trip, you determine you need an accommodation in order to meet the EEC, please contact us prior to registering to discuss your requested accommodation.

The EEC exist for your own safety and the safety and enjoyment of all participants. If you are unable to meet the EEC for the trip, with or without an accommodation, you are not eligible for that trip. If you register and arrive for a trip for which you do not meet the EEC, you will be disqualified from participation on the trip and will be dismissed or evacuated from the trip without a refund.

Guides

Our approach to international travel is to combine the best of two worlds: the dialed-in details, professionalism and consistency Wildland trips are known for; and the cultural immersion and intimate regional knowledge that only locals can provide. To excel with this approach, we vet and hire the best local guides, welcome them into the Wildland family and train them to meet our standard of excellence with every aspect of a trip. But along with managing logistics and safety, your guides will teach you about the area’s history and culture, and provide a level of familiarity and intimate detail only locals can.

Check out our Meet Our Team page for staff bios.

Age Restrictions

Age restrictions on this trip are as follows:

  • 12 and older to join scheduled tours (mixed groups)
  • 10 and older to join private tours

Trip Insurance Requirements

Field evacuation, repatriation, and medical insurance is REQUIRED on all Alps trips as a condition of partnership terms with our European vendors (field evacuation and repatriation minimum coverage is a combined $200,000 USD).

We recommend IMG/iTravelinsured. They are one of the world’s leading providers of travel insurance and policies meet all Alps requirements.

For information on the recommended IMG/iTravelinsured policies please click here.

If you already have the required insurance or wish to purchase from anyone other than IMG/iTravelinsured, we recommend careful consultation with the provider to ensure appropriate coverage. This is because many providers have a number of policy exclusions.

Weather in the Alps

The location of the Alps and their tremendous elevation variations lead to significant and sometimes unpredictable temperatures and weather patterns, both in different ranges and in a particular range itself. Due to the Alps’ location in central Europe, they are influenced by moist air off the Atlantic, cold polar air from northern Europe, fluctuating air masses, and warm Mediterranean air flows northward.

Due to these extraordinary forces acting on the Alps’ weather, we recommend following our clothing list closely (in your trip packet when you register), as guests are best served by being prepared for a broad range of possible temperatures and weather conditions.

Challenging but pectacular

This review is for the Tour de Mont Blanc from 6/16-6/24/24 with the Chamonix add on package. The trip was perfect! This was our second time traveling with Wildland and they did not disappoint. Our guides, Willy and Ashley, were the best. They both had our safety as their top priority and worked so well together. Willy's experience on the TMB was evident and I enjoyed hearing stories about his homeland. Ashley was so fun - especially going down snow slides together and sharing delicious French food. As for our fellow hikers, Randee, Rolly, Christy, Tim and Leslie, I could not have asked for a better group of people. The hiking was challenging but spectacular. We were early in the season so there was still quite a bit of snow. Sleeping in a real bed every night was a treat. Trail lunches featured local cheese, meat, chocolate and wine. Dinners were delicious. And, we were greeted by the Olympic Flame when we arrived in Chamonix - great ending to a wonderful hike. I highly recommend the add on package in Chamonix. It is an outdoor paradise with so much to do. Highlights are Aiguille du Midi, Montnevers and the day spa. Overall, a perfect trip that I would love to do again!

Wilfred and Thomas guided us through Mont Blanc. It was a tough trip but they always made us feel safe. They were fun, positive and most encouraging. Couldn't have made it through this hike without such capable and skilled guides.

So much more than a hike!

15 days ago

This trip felt like a fairy tale! While the hiking was definitely the highlight, the journey was an amazing experience filled with perfectly quaint inns, great food and a lot of laughs! The guides were very attentive to each hikers pace and needs and allowed our group to move seamlessly along our routes. We enjoyed group picnics prepared by the guides each day, and even the rainy days were made magical by the opportunity to stop for coffee and brownies in the refuges along the way. I cannot recommend this hike enough and encourage anyone considering it, to do it! Just make sure you spend a little time preapring your body and mind for this experience!
