Our 3 Peaks graded chalet based, guided walking holidays are aimed at fit and experienced hill walkers looking for challenging day walks, coupled with the comfort of our lovely catered chalet to return to each evening. You should have a high level of stamina and be capable of walking for long days in mountainous terrain.
These holidays focus on the physical challenge of alpine walking and the satisfaction that comes from reaching the high mountain peaks and ridges of the wonderful Haut Giffre valley in the French Alps, right next door to the Mont Blanc massif.
On these holidays you spend the day exploring this wonderful alpine region with our resident guide and other guests (a typical group size is around eight guests), then return to the comfort of our charming chalet, to relax and share the day's experiences with your fellow guests, while we take care of everything else.
Those looking for less of a physical challenge, with more emphasis on nature and mountain wildlife, may prefer our 2 Peaks graded walking holidays.
