The circular trail from Les Houches in the Chamonix Valley has plenty of ascent and descent with panoramic views of snow-capped mountains, glaciers and wild-flower meadows. This itinerary builds in well-earned rest days in the Italian alpine resort town of Courmayeur nestled in the Val D’Aosta at the base of the mighty Mt Blanc. As you hike across the borders of France, Italy, and Switzerland, you will look forward to staying in our classic chalet-style hotels in town, or resting in your own private room at traditional mountain huts. This itinerary gives you the absolute best the Tour du Mont Blanc has to offer, and has consistently been one of our top sellers over the years.
