Why choose the Alps for an active holiday?

Hiking in the Alps means accessing a network of perfectly marked trails, staying in welcoming mountain huts, and enjoying breathtaking panoramas. Whether you are an experienced trekker or a contemplative hiker, you will find routes suited to your level and your desires.

Leigh Ann 7/18/26 • Tour du Mont Blanc - Guided 10-Day

— This was one of the best trips of my life!! Physically, the hiking was challenging, but doable, which was what my party was looking for. Every minute of the day, the views were SPECTACULAR!!! Literally breathtaking. Our guide took great care of us and we LOVED our 3 course meals every night in the different, fascinating cities. We also met so many fun and friendly people on the Tour. Loved it all❤️

Suzanne 6/29/26 • Dolomites Grand Traverse, from Bolzano to Cortina

— Be prepared for some demanding hikes with some long, steep climbs over passes (with some parts on unstable scree and a few places where you have a cabled handrail to assist). I was worried about how I would handle some of the more exposed places but found it less scary than I expected. The reward for all your effort are the stunning views and the satisfaction of reaching lovely refugios for lunches and overnight stays. Celebrating each hike with Aperol and Hugo spritzes was a daily highlight! The organization by Grand Angle was excellent and the app is a fantastic resource and guide. It ended up being fun following the instructions and figuring out the connecting bus rides. One other point - we highly recommend booking luggage transfer but be aware that due to how that works, you are carrying two days worth of gear practically every day of the trip and just topping up from your luggage when you do see it. Get your training in for this one and you will be ready for the succession of hard hikes over 10 days.

Lorrae 7/12/26 • Tour du Mont Blanc - Classic 8-Day

— Scenery was out of this world. The ascents were hard but it meant you could stop and take it all in, take your time and appreciate just what you are achieving.

Vincent 7/11/26 • Tour du Mont Blanc - Classic 8-Day

— Grand Angle's advice for organizing our 6-day TMB fully met our expectations; the route, the stages and the suggested accommodations perfectly matched our requirements. We were lucky enough to enjoy exceptional weather during the period the agency had recommended. We experienced exceptional moments, made lovely encounters and enjoyed views over magnificent landscapes. A little break from life, to be repeated!
