Mont Blanc (4810m) is the highest mountain in the Alps and a great mountaineering classic: Located between the Acosta region in Italy and the Haute Savio in France, the peak is surrounded by two of the world’s most famous mountain resort towns: Courmayeur and Chamonix. Although not too difficult in the technical level, Mont Blanc ascent is quite challenging and acclimatization is key to success.
Training for Mount Blanc involves a combination of physical fitness, technical skills, and acclimatization. We the HST Adventures organize Mt. Blanc Expedition regularly in each season. The expedition will be lead by a veteran and international mountain instructor Krish Thapa.
