5Overview
Back for round two! Join Amanda for the next edition of Unbreakable Treks: Tour du Mont Blanc - an exhilarating 5-day trail-running adventure through the heart of the Alps.
This multi-day adventure is more than a run. Together, you’ll push your limits across spectacular alpine terrain while traversing France, Italy, and Switzerland around the iconic Mont Blanc massif.
Over five challenging days, you’ll cover approximately 98 miles (157 km), averaging around 20 miles (32 km) and 7,000 ft (2,120 m) of elevation gain per day. You’ll travel in “fastpack mode,” carrying only your trail essentials while your main luggage is transported to your next accommodation.
Along the way, experience dramatic mountain passes, glaciers, alpine valleys, welcoming mountain refuges, and constantly changing views of Mont Blanc—all while sharing the challenge with Amanda and a community of fellow trail runners.
Highlights:
● Round Two: Join Amanda for the second edition of this Unbreakable Treks adventure around Mont Blanc.
● Run through three countries: Traverse France, Italy, and Switzerland on one of the world’s most iconic mountain routes.
● Challenge yourself: Take on long days of trail running, major elevation gains, technical terrain, and legendary Alpine passes.
● Experience Mont Blanc from every angle: Enjoy constantly changing views of the Mont Blanc massif, glaciers, valleys, and surrounding peaks.
● Run light: Your main luggage is transported between accommodations, allowing you to carry only your trail essentials each day.
● Share the challenge: Experience five unforgettable days in the Alps alongside Amanda and a community of fellow trail runners.
Important: This is a demanding trip designed for intermediate to advanced trail runners. Participants should have prior trail-running experience and be comfortable spending approximately 6–8 hours per day on mountainous and technical terrain, including sustained climbs and descents. Appropriate endurance training and preparation are strongly recommended.
