TREKS

TOUR OF MOUNT BLANC
Thursday 14th June - Saturday 23rd June 2012
Thursday 21st June - Saturday 30th June 2012

The Tour of Mount Blanc is a physically challenging but truly wonderful trek that takes in views of Mt Blanc from 3 countries. We start near Chamonix in France and move round to the Italian side of Monte Bianco and onto the serene village of Champex Lac in Switzerland before crossing back over to Le tour and down to Chamonix. It is a stunning trek with superb views of Mountt Blanc and its glaciers. We pass over several cols with the highest being Grande Col Ferret at 2500m and whilst tough, there should be no altitude issues.

We use a selection of strategically placed refuges, hotels, and gites where the ambience is in keeping with the spirit of the trek. You will need to carry a reasonable pack containing sufficient for the week – clothes, waterproofs etc generally between 8-12kgs (travelling light is the key).

PRICE: £695.00

INCLUDES: Airport transfers, All accommodation & travel costs, All food* *Except lunch in Chamonix on Friday.) Fully guided by experienced International Mountain Leaders.

EXCLUDES: Personal Equipment, Drinks, Insurance

MOUNT TOUBKAL CIRCUIT, MOROCCO
Saturday 1st Septmber - Sunday 9th September 2012
Saturday 8th Septmber - Saturday 16th September 2012

A truly wonderful trek in an area where one takes a step back in time, to both a city and mountains strongly influenced by the Berber culture. The trekking is not too difficult and the altitude generally does not prove problematic. The views, richness of culture and life put this trek in the top ten of ‘to do’ things before you die!

PRICE: £465.00

SUMMARY: Mt Toubkal at 4167m is the highest mountain in North Africa. The ascent of Toubkal is not technical but is a rough scramble on scree. However, the views from the summit are magnificent and well worth the effort. Far below to the north are the fertile plains of Marrakech while to the south is the Jebel Sahro range and the vast expanse of the Great.
