And there it is: Mont Blanc. As we drove up out of the ski village Arc 1950 to its higher counterpart Arc 2000, the Alps' (and indeed Europe's) highest mountain loomed up in front of us. The sheer height accompanied with its sprawling snow-covered massif makes the mountain almost unbelievable, especially as it appeared everything in between myself and the mountain appeared to be rolling hills loved by skiers. This walk is probably best if you do want a great view of Mont Blanc's southern side, as well as some beautiful lakes and pools combined with some spectacular cliff scenery.
