With its imposing 4810 meters, Mont Blanc is the giant of the Alps and a symbol of the birth of mountaineering. It's a spectacular environment, made up of majestic glaciers, sharp ridges, lush green pastures, and crystal-clear lakes.
On this journey, we'll cover 130 kilometers on foot in six stages, crossing three nations: Italy, Switzerland, and France. From Courmayeur to Chamonix, passing through Alpine villages and mountain huts nestled in nature, we'll explore three diverse territories, each with its own cultural and gastronomic identity.
This trek is aimed at experienced hikers, ready to tackle challenging but incredibly rewarding trails.
A preliminary meeting on Gran Sasso is planned. This will be useful for getting to know each other, sharing expectations, and receiving practical information.
Registration is free. Individual expenses (accommodation, meals, and transport) are the responsibility of the participants.
Accommodation will be in mountain huts, campsites, or villages (tent use possible with prior authorization).
A CAI membership card is mandatory, which includes insurance coverage.
