With panoramic alpine views, charming villages, and cozy mountain huts, it’s a perfect introduction to hut-to-hut trekking in the Alps.

MERCANTOUR NATIONAL PARK

The Mercantour National Park (6 days) is one of France’s best-kept secrets when it comes to hut-to-hut hiking. Located in the southern Alps near the Mediterranean, this region offers a unique blend of alpine peaks, deep valleys, and even prehistoric rock carvings in the Vallée des Merveilles. With far fewer hikers than on the more famous trails, Mercantour is perfect for those looking to explore quiet trails, unspoiled nature, and authentic mountain huts.

Far from the crowds, this route takes you through peaceful alpine meadows, rocky passes, and along crystal-clear mountain lakes. With its moderate stages and cozy huts, it’s a perfect option for hikers looking for something off the beaten track – but still very much worth discovering.
