FRANCE’S MONT BLANC WALK
Considered to be one of the finest routes in the Alps, the Mont Blanc circuit allows you to experience this fantastic area in a relaxing way. It offers an unusual variety of spectacular scenery, from terrific glaciers, the Mont Blanc Massif to alpine lakes, mountain streams and charming villages. Here nature reserves have protected the rare wild flora and fauna that abound in the higher reaches.
Your trip starts in Argentiere, nestled in a bustling valley at the foot of the highest range in Europe, the Mont Blanc Massif On a clear day, a visit up the Aiguille de Midi (12,486 feet above sea level) is breathtaking-you will feel on “top of the world.” You then start your walk following the mountain streams along the valley bottom from Chamonix to the town of Argentiere. During the next walking day, you will cross from France into Switzerland to the village of Finhaut at 4,020 feet above sea level which (as the name implies) is perched high on the mountain with spectacular views.
Cable cars and chairlifts enable you to ascend to Emosson Lake. Prehistoric dinosaur tracks are close at hand above Vieux Emosson Lake. Gorges such as the Trient gorges or the Tete Noir gorges make an interesting walk. You will also be able to walk along the mighty Trient glacier to Lac Champex.
The walks are generally between six and nine miles per day with the option of shorter walks.
