Review

Outstanding Running in the Alps

Classic Tour du Mont-Blanc Guided

Rating

This was an absolutely wonderful trip and I would strongly recommend it. Everyone at Run the Alps are wonderful guides to the joys of this running experience.

Why

I had heard a great deal about the Tour du Mont Blanc and thought this would be a low stress way to do it. It met all my expectations and I greatly enjoyed the opportunity to experience the Alpine running culture.

Advice

Training is important, particularly vertical and endurance. Speed, not so much.

Highlight

Arriving at a high point on a col and running down the far side after a beverage and tart.
