De beklimming van de Mont Blanc behoort tot de meest iconische beklimmingen die je in de Alpen kunt doen. De Mont Blanc is de hoogste berg van de Alpen én van West-Europa. Hoewel het zelfs voor onervaren mensen mogelijk is om de top veilig te bereiken is het zeker geen 'walk in the park'. De witte top, die vanuit Chamonix zo dichtbij lijkt, oefent een onweerstaanbare aantrekkingskracht uit op velen. Heel veel mensen dromen ervan om een keer de Mont Blanc te beklimmen en op haar top te staan. Met de juiste voorbereiding, een flinke dosis doorzettingsvermogen én een goede (Nederlandse) berggids is de beklimming van de Mont Blanc voor iedereen haalbaar.
