Tour du Mont Blanc Women's Hiking Adventure 2026
The Ultimate Women's Guided Hiking Tour Through France, Italy & Switzerland
The Tour du Mont Blanc is widely regarded as the most iconic long-distance trek in Europe - a 170-kilometer circuit around the Mont Blanc massif that takes you through three countries, across dramatic Alpine passes, and through some of the most breathtaking mountain scenery on earth. Towering snow-capped peaks, glittering glaciers, turquoise alpine lakes, flower-filled meadows, and centuries-old mountain villages unfold around every bend. Chamonix, France serves as the gateway, with the trail winding through the valleys of Italy's Aosta region and Switzerland's Valais before looping back through the French Alps.
We've designed this women's hiking adventure specifically for women who want to take on this bucket-list hike with the confidence of expert guides, a community of like-minded adventurers, and the ease of a fully planned itinerary. No stressing over refuge bookings, no solo navigation, no having to plan your meals - just you, the mountains, and an extraordinary group of women.
