Spend a week soaking up the jaw-dropping beauty of the French Alps with our Peaks & Trails adventure, right in the heart of Chamonix Mont Blanc valley. We’ll be based in a cosy, stylish chalet — your home-from-home for the week — surrounded by some of the tallest, most dramatic peaks in Europe. Not a bad view to wake up to every morning.

Each day we’ll head out on guided hikes (around 8–15km) to explore Chamonix’s best bits — think turquoise Alpine lakes, wildflower meadows, and the kind of glaciers that make you stop in your tracks. One of the big moments of the week? Riding the famous Aiguille du Midi cable car all the way up to 3,800m for a seriously “wow” view over Mont Blanc and the endless sea of peaks around it.

An alpine adventure

After a day out exploring the trails, we’ll head back to our cosy chalet to kick off our boots and properly unwind. Evenings are for lazy chats on the terrace, good food, and watching the light fade over the peaks. We’ll tuck into dinner, swap the day’s best stories, and maybe plan tomorrow’s adventures.

Whether you’re here for the buzz of high-altitude hikes or the calm of glassy Alpine lakes, Peaks & Trails mixes big mountain days with slow, easy evenings — all set against the epic backdrop of Chamonix Mont Blanc.

The perfect alpine adventure

This one’s for people who love getting out on the trails every day but also like coming back to somewhere comfy at night. We’ll be hiking around 8–15km a day with up to 1000m of elevation — so you’ll want to be comfortable on your feet for a 5-6 hours at a time. On some days we’ll make use of the lifts to save our legs (or skip the big climbs altogether). Work smart, not hard, right?
