One of the most famous multi-day mountain hike in the Alps!
Adventure in France, Italy, and Switzerland: explore these alpine cultures. Hike to Lac Blanc!

Every day, you will enjoy so many new adventures as you explore the different sides, cultures, and landscapes of the range: first through France, and then Italy and finally Switzerland. The well-marked trails and circuits are used for both trade and communications that have been used since Antiquity.

Tour Includes
Green Gables is the name of a 19th-century farm in Cavendish, Prince Edward Island, and is one of the most notable literary landmarks in Canada. The Green Gables farm and its surroundings are the setting for the popular Anne of Green Gables novels by Lucy Maud Montgomery.
Tour Excludes
The Green Gables farm was owned by the MacNeill family, who were cousins of author Lucy Maud Montgomery. The farm's name is derived from the rich dark green paint of the gables on the farmhouse. The main exterior walls of the farmhouse are painted white.
Montgomery visited the farm as a young girl and based the location of her best-selling Anne series of books on the Green Gables farm. She drew romantic inspiration from the house, as well as the surrounding area, including the "Haunted Woods", "Lovers' Lane", and "Balsam Hollow."
Excludes
The international acclaim of Montgomery's novels made Cavendish into a popular tourist destination in the province beginning in the early 20th century. This led to the establishment of Prince Edward Island National Park in the 1930s. The park's boundaries encompassed the Green Gables homestead, and the building became the property of the Government of Canada.
The farmland surrounding Green Gables house was developed into a golf course, designed by world-renowned architect Stanley Thompson.
