Chamonix to Zermatt Trek Itinerary

Hiking from Chamonix to Zermatt.  This is the hikers classic haute route giving you an opportunity to soak the
atmosphere of small Swiss towns and high passes were the Choucas soar between cliffs and glacier.  We will see
Bouquetins leaping with their young from ledges to alcoves and high meadows, summer home to the cows and sheep
that graze peacefully by the cascading torrent that are reminiscent of “The Sound of Music”. Views that make you feel like
you are in heaven. All this along with your friends sharing stories, reinventing life, reenergizing yourself.

At night in the small typical Swiss hotel we will enjoy a good foundue. Or in the old  English style  hotel enjoying  afternoon
tea after many hours of hiking. On a bench in front of a mountain hut with binoculars one can follow the bouquetins and
chamois at play.

This incredible hike requires a good level of fitness but it is organize so you will carry only a small day pack, Lodging is in
hotels and Inn except 1 night in alpine huts. All of your luggage will follow you by bus and each night (except one) you will
find the comfort of hotels and lodges awaiting you.
