The famous Haute Route links the two biggest alpine centers in Europe, Chamonix in France and Zermatt in Switzerland, going along glaciers, meadows, and craggy mountain passes with spectacular views. The glacial Haute Route was first attempted by Chamonix mountain guides, who were trying to find a way over the mountains from Zermatt to Chamonix. The rest is history. The Walker’s Haute Route is a trekking route, no mountaineering skills or mountaineering equipment such as ropes or ice axes are necessary. Most of the mountain passes to be crossed are up to 3’000m (9000 ft) high.

Mont Blanc (4,807m - 15’771 ft), the Grand Combin (4,314m - 14’153 ft) and the easy to recognize Matterhorn (4,478m - 14’691 ft) rise along this trail. Cozy alpine refuges and the outstanding landscape make this trip a real mountain experience. Each walk during this trek is different and offers awesome views of the Alps. Staying in friendly, comfortable hotels and having your luggage waiting for you upon arrival each evening makes trekking a real pleasure without the burden and weight of too much gear. Bring some shorts or bathing suit to be able to enjoy a sauna or the Jacuzzi after a long day’s hike! We now also offer a shorter version, the Haute Route Express, from Chamonix to Zermatt for guests with less time on their hands.
