5.Tour de Mont Blanc, France
Ah, the most wonderful scenery in the heart of France’s nature!
This is one of the most well known hikes in the world, there isn’t a single list with the best hiking trails where you won’t find the Tour de Mont Blanc listed.
This 170-km trail surrounds Europe’s highest peak of 15,000 feet, Mont Blanc, allowing you to benefit from the breathtaking views of Mont Blanc and the French Alps with fantastic green valleys, alpine lakes and enormous glaciers.
The good news about this trail is that anybody can do it, not only the hard core hikers. There are comfortable and warming refuges along the way so that you can have a rest and regain your strength and even if that’s still too much for you, you can always take the cable cars and chair lifts to make sure you complete the trail and still not miss a thing!
The magic of the French Alps is definitely something you have to see at least once!
