Craving long daylight and crisp mountain air at the height of summer? Our guided hiking trips in July take you to where the season shines. In France, stride through Ecrins National Park’s wild valleys, the Queyras and Beaufortain ranges, Vanoise National Park, the ridgelines of the Val d'Arly, the sculpted limestone of Devoluy and the airy crests of the Vosges. Routes range from gentle balcony paths to more sustained cols, with nights in welcoming huts or simple tent camps facing big peaks.
Head north for the King’s Trail in Swedish Lapland and the Lofoten Islands under the midnight sun. To the west, explore the Isle of Skye and the Scottish Highlands. Further south, cross the Tramuntana Mountains on Mallorca or traverse the lake filled valleys of Aiguestortes in the Spanish Pyrenees. You walk in a small group with a local guide who knows the best rhythms, cool water sources, swim spots and scenic variants. Trips span 2 to 10 days and all levels from beginner to advanced, while we handle the route, bookings and safety so you can focus on the trail.
If you dream of a quiet camp with views of high glaciers or a sunrise over a jagged Swiss skyline, this is what July in the mountains delivers: true time out, paced by your steps, your breath and the bright light of altitude.
