Alps Travel Info

Climb every mountain in the French Alps

Snow-topped mountains, plunging valleys, sparkling lakes, and meadow-covered hillsides, the French Alps, home to Mont Blanc, Europe's highest peak at 4,807m, are a mighty fine place to breathe in the fresh air.

Hiking, biking, climbing and watersports keep summer visitors active, though it's once the temperature drops that the hills really come alive.
