Our 4 Peaks graded trekking holidays are the most strenuous holidays we offer and they are designed for very fit hill walkers who have a good head for heights and who are looking for a challenging holiday.
The provisional itinerary for the week involves one continuous six day trek, which starts in France before heading into Switzerland and which includes two 3,000+ metre summits. The first and last nights are spent in the luxury of our catered chalet and the other five nights are spent in mountain hut accommodation.

Accommodation
Chalet accommodation
- the first and last nights are spent in the luxury of our catered chalet in the village of Samoëns. This provides the ideal base to start and end this epic tour and offers a little luxury either side of the six days of challenging trekking.
Mountain huts
- During your nights on the mountain, accommodation will be in mountain huts either in France or
Switzerland. These huts are all at a high altitude (usually around 2,000 metres) but they are
manned and will provide us with bedding, an evening meal and breakfast.
