Tour du Mont Blanc

"Walkabout offer a light and fast modern alpine style trek."

This wonderful but demanding trek goes round the whole Mont Blanc Massif from Chamonix into Italy then Switzerland and back into France returning to Chamonix. The total distance is 105 miles involving approx. 33,500ft (10,000m) of ascent and descent. It has been walked in 4 days, completed as a 'run' in 16 hrs. 40 mins and done by a relay team in 11 hrs. and 54 mins.

We complete the whole circuit in 6 days! By walking on average about 16 miles a day, it's all on good paths but obviously some of it includes tough uphill sections. We use transport on the one or two sections that involve walks along flat valley roads. An example is the Val Veny down into Courmayeur after two hard days on the mountains when everyone is quite happy to avoid several hours of road slogging.

We will only accept people onto this walk who are confident that they can do 'hard walks' or who are moderate-plus walkers - almost at the hard walker level and willing to train to be able to do the 6 days as described.

Detailed information about the itinerary of this walk is available on request for people making bookings.
