Alpine Wildlife
The Alps are teeming with fascinating wildlife, so we’ve put together a guide to the Alpine animals you might see on a trek near Chamonix. Close-up encounters with ibex (like our one-horned friend in the photo) are not uncommon. We regularly see chamois, marmots, choughs and griffon vultures too, as well as occasional sightings of arctic foxes, eagles, snakes, ermine and other shyer residents.
Our blog pages have more articles on Alpine wildlife, as well as the fascinating wild flowers that put on such a stunning display when the snows melt each spring.
Summer Hiking Week
Tick off the iconic hikes and legendary cable cars of the Chamonix valley with this lift-accessed guided hiking week. Six nights half board in a three-star hotel, five days guided hiking, lift pass and transfers are included from €1800 per person, or there is a course-only option for €500 per person.

Tour of Jotunheim, Norway
We’re excited to launch our first group trek outside the Alps, in a region we love like a second home. Jotunheim – land of the giants in Norse mythology – is chock full of jaw-droppingly stunning scenery and we can’t wait to take you there!
We’ll start from Gjendesheim and make a five-day circuit of the Jotunheim national park, threading between Norway’s highest peaks and finishing with the spectacular Bessegen ridge.
