October, 1st to November, 26th - Every Wednesday
Enjoy the exceptional beauty of the mountain landscapes of the Chamonix Valley and the Pays du Mont Blanc during a day hike. Whatever your experience and your form, our hikes suitable for the whole family will introduce you to mountain flora and fauna as well as places with a centuries-old history
But autumn offers more than just stunning colors. It's also the season when mountain wildlife prepares for winter. Animals take advantage of the last warmth of the year to build up their energy reserves. You'll have the unique opportunity to observe chamois and ibex in their natural habitat, while squirrels and birds gear up for the colder months.
Whether you're a photography enthusiast, a nature lover, or simply seeking a rewarding outdoor experience, our 'Autumn Colors' outings will leave you with unforgettable memories.
