Trek the Alps: Three countries in three days
13 to 17 June 2025
Join us on an epic adventure as we trek through three countries in three days.
This challenge will see you explore France, Italy and Switzerland as we take on a section of the Tour du Mont Blanc. The route encircles the Mont Blanc Massif and is considered one of the world’s classic long-distance walking trails.
The valleys in this area are simply beautiful with vast pine forests, lush meadows, blue lakes, soaring rocky peaks and breath-taking glaciers. This magnificent alpine region is also home to a variety of wild flowers, birds and other wildlife.
Mont Blanc, or “White Mountain”, is the highest mountain in the Mont Blanc Massif, and at an elevation of 4810m is the tallest peak in the Alps and Western Europe. It is permanently covered in snow and ice, giving rise to its nicknames, La Dame Blanche ‘the White Lady’ in France, and Il Bianco ‘the White One’ in Italy.
This 3-day trek will take you along part of this trail, trekking in 3 different countries anticlockwise from the east to northwest, trekking in the Italian, Swiss and French Alps.
