Mont Blanc (or Monte Bianco in Italian) straddles the border between France and Italy. At 15,780 feet, it is the highest point of the Alps and the tallest mountain in Western Europe. This makes it a popular destination for mountaineers everywhere. Internationals meet in the town of Chamonix at the foot of the mountain before embarking on their rewarding journey. For a less intense trek, there’s the Tour du Mont Blanc hiking trail that runs 124 miles around the mountain through France, Switzerland and Italy. Calendar-worthy photo-ops of Mont Blanc await those who take the shorter hike to White Lake.
