If there's a Mecca for hikers, it must be the Alps, with the famous "Tour du Mont Blanc," a trail around Western Europe's highest peak (15,771'), as the showpiece. You'll enjoy jaw-dropping views of mountain landscapes, dramatic glaciers, and jagged, heaven-reaching peaks as you make your way hiking up and down France, Italy, and Switzerland's challenging mountain passes - and explore each country's distinctive flair, language, and (best of all)…cuisine! At the end of the day you'll check into a charming mountain inn for a much deserved rest and a terrific meal. We love this region and have thoroughly enjoyed sharing it with our clients since our first hiking trips in the Alps back in 1970. So this summer, challenge yourself and join us on a "tour du Mont Blanc" - one of the world's best treks and a "classic" Mountain Travel Sobek adventure
