While most travelers come to the French Alps to hike the famous Tour du Mont Blanc, few realize that other parts of the region are just as breathtaking yet far less crowded. On this adventure, we take you off the beaten path, across the spectacular Fiz range and the Aiguilles Rouges, with the Mont Blanc massif always in sight.

This 6-day adventure is designed for fit hikers or those with a bold, adventurous spirit, ready to take on challenging trails in exchange for unforgettable views. Think jagged peaks, mirror-like alpine lakes, and close encounters with alpine ibex all in serene, uncrowded nature.

Expect cozy nights in alpine huts, visits to towns & villages, markets, and a local distillery in Haute-Savoie, plus time for yoga and slow, joyful moments in nature.

  • 3 days Hiking the Fiz range & sleeping in alpine huts
