Get ready for an exciting ascent to the Dent du Geant (4013 m above sea level), a majestic peak in the heart of the Mont Blanc massif in the Grange Alps!

During this unique trek with CK Himalaya you will follow in the footsteps of an experienced UIAGM mountain guide and conquer the Dent du Geant peak. A challenging but rewarding ascent awaits you, which will test your physical fitness and endurance. The reward for your efforts will be an unforgettable experience of conquering the imposing peak and breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding mountain scenery.
