What to expect
Your guide meets you in Chamonix and assesses your experience level before deciding which trails suit you best. The day involves steady uphill and downhill sections with a mix of alpine meadow and rocky terrain. You'll stop mid-way for a picnic—the guide unpacks regional produce and you eat surrounded by peaks. Descents can be tougher on knees than ascents. Weather changes fast at altitude; your guide reads conditions and adjusts accordingly.
