Hike through France, Italy and Switzerland on the Tour du Mont Blanc with Travel Light
Join me as we hike and eat our way through France, Italy, and Switzerland on the Tour du Mont Blanc. We are hiking a 70-mile section of the most popular trek in Europe. Luxury Trekking is a unique way to experience the mountains on foot without carrying heavy gear. Spend 7 nights in family-owned mountain lodges and enjoy delicious 3-course meals, hot showers, and a fun communal atmosphere shared by people from all around the world. After our fourth day on trail we will indulge in a full rest day in Ceourmayeur - an Italian ski town where a spa day and massage will restore your energy and spirit. Hiking 70 miles will test your physical and mental strength - and it will be worth every moment!
Our journey starts and ends in Chamonix - a picturesque ski town in France that will take your breath away. Meet your fellow trekkers, explore town, shop for gear, and carb up before we hit the trail. Training is required as these trails include some serious gains! We will be hiking uphill for several hours a day. Bring your broken-in hiking boots and your spirit of adventure. Lets make unforgettable memories together!

At Travel Light, we believe travel has the power to change your life. Our trips are built for people who crave more than just a vacation. They are for the ones who want to stand on mountain trails that leave them speechless, share meals with strangers who become lifelong friends, and return home feeling more connected to themselves and the world around them.
Most of our travelers come solo, and many arrive nervous about joining a group where they don't know anyone. By the end of the trip they’re planning future adventures together, sharing inside jokes, and realizing they were capable of far more than they imagined.
We keep our groups intentionally small so every trip feels personal, supportive, and deeply connected. Whether you’re chasing a bucket list trek, searching for community, or simply ready for adventure, we’d love to welcome you into the Travel Light family.
