“We enjoyed the freedom of independent walking but knowing that someone would be aware if we didn’t turn up that evening.”

 

“Great to walk the valley and have luggage transported.”

Full Description

Walking holidays, tours and vacations in the French Alps, France

 

The finest mountain scenery in Europe

 

Our revived and substantially revised route, in the heart of the Alps and at the foot of Mont Blanc, is one of the most awe-inspiring and spectacular landscapes in Europe. Whichever way you turn, you are almost forced to crane your neck to look upwards at one more breathtaking view after another. Mont Blanc, rising innocently some 3800 metres above you can look deceptively near until you view it through a telescope, take the distance into account and then consider how many attempts it took before man reached its summit.
 
But our walk is lower, in the alpages, the delightful meadows, flower-decked in June and July, which demand that you stop, breathe in, listen to the cow-bell silence and take in the extraordinary vistas around you. Sit down and relax before you rush on to your next authentic Savoy hotel, as the paths are demanding, though so rewarding. You will not want to return home.
