Relish the challenge of exhilarating high level walks that venture to high summits and cols that are normally ‘off-limits’ on our Guided Walking holidays. Using cable-cars and then rough and steep paths, that may be exposed or have fixed ropes, we’ll aim for some of the area’s best summits. Most holidays have opportunities to bag some 3,000m (10,000ft) peaks; a memorable achievement that you’ll want to savour.

8 to 13 miles with up to 4,500ft of ascent.

The snow-capped peaks of Mont Blanc dominates the area and we’ll either walk high on its slopes or gaze across at the dramatic white glaciers from the Aiguille Rouge Massif or the Mont Joly ridge.

What's included:

• 7 nights’ Half Board accommodation
• A full programme of guided walks
• ‘With flight’ holidays include airport transfers
