Adventure Weeks

Specialised Trekking Weeks

Available from mid – June until mid – September. This is a great and rewarding holiday for walkers who would like a challenge in one of the most beautiful walking areas in the French Alps, tackling various trekking routes over the course of a week. Your holiday with us is completely bespoke, so you can tailor make the treks to suit your level and ability. Contact us with the type of treks you would like to do, and we will plan your week and get them organized. For this type of holiday your group must number eight people or more. Don’t worry if you have not the numbers to fill the group, simply contact us with your preferred dates, and we may be able to find other like-minded people who are in the same situation. We can arrange for local professional guides for any trekking activities.

A typical trekking week itinerary could include:

Saturday: Arrival in resort.

Sunday: Cornettes de Bise (Horns of the Cold Wind 2432m) 6-7hrs. One of the highest and most dramatic of the Chablais peaks, enjoying great panoramic views of the Mt. Blanc range, Lake Leman and the Jura mountains. Keep a lookout for the wild Ibex that live on the mountain!

Monday: Le Roc d’Enfer (hell’s rock 2243m) 6-7hrs. This is one of the classics of the region. There is a fair amount of scrambling, often with chains to give you support, the drops behind you are quite considerable so a head for heights is essential! A dramatic ridge trek with breathtaking views in all directions.

Tuesday: Le Fer a Cheval half day. Easy / rest day. Taking you into the heart of the Sixt nature reserve, this amazing walk takes you on a horseshoe shaped tour of snow tipped mountains with waterfalls cascading all around you.

Wednesday – Friday: Morzine – Chamonix 3 days – 2 nights, staying overnight in Mountain Refuges. A beautiful walk that follows the GR5 trekking route over a series of hanging valleys, mountain passes and beautiful waterfalls to eventually reach Le Brevent (2500m) with its amazing panoramic views of the Mt. Blanc range.
