A multiple day loop trek between France and Switzerland, the Tour des Dents Blanches takes 3 to 6 days to complete along a well-marked trail linking Haute-Savoie to Valais. With plenty of accommodation options in gîtes, mountain refuges and huts, it’s easy to plan comfortable overnight stops.

This hike immerses you in the heart of alpine landscapes, amidst steep peaks, mountain pastures and spectacular views. The contrast between the gentle, flower-filled meadows and the rugged rock faces creates varied and striking scenery. You’ll cross from one country to the other almost without realising it, carried along by the natural continuity of the mountain range.

The Tour is generally accessible from mid-July. It is recommended that you check with the mountain huts regarding the condition of the trails before setting off. Enjoy your hike!
