A great introduction to the Mont Blanc region with great accommodation, daily three course meals, great staff, a lovely group, and some stunning views of the surrounding mountainous landscape!
The Mont Blanc 7 day trek was all that it was advertised as. Stunning views, excellent guide Elodie who ensured that the pace of the trek was suitable for all. The description of moderate to challenging was spot on, with some of the steeper sections falling into the latter category. Great mix of people in our group from different locations in the world, brilliant atmosphere. Accommodation was as described (twin room option worthwhile) and the food was varied enough through the week - picnics just right for lunch. You do walk the hours so being well prepared before you come on this trek ensured that we successfully managed the steeper sections. Great experience and very well organised.
Mt. Blanc Highlights - Perfect in every way A perfect hiking vacation for those with a moderate level of fitness who are used to several consecutive days of hiking in the mountains. Snow capped peaks, verdant alpine meadows full of flowers in June and (lucky me) blue skies and sunshine every day (not guaranteed!!). A small group of friendly and fun people led by an expert professional who made sure everyone was safe and comfortable all the while letting people enjoy the hiking, the scenery, photography at their own pace. Excellent food and accommodation which far exceeded expectations.
