M O N T B L A N C , F R A N C E The peak of Mont Blanc is 15,781 feet high, the highest in Europe. All year long it is covered in snow and ice, so ice picks are a necessity. The climb takes about three days but could take longer. This trek requires a guide.
H A L F D O M E , C A Overlooking Yosemite Valley, Half Dome is 8,839 feet above the ground. The final 400 feet of the climb is a steep slab of rock. There is a ladder and handrail to make the climb safer, and it takes a whole day for a trip up the mountain and back down.
At 19,340 feet, three inactive volcanoes make Kilimanjaro. It is the highest peak in Africa. Porters must accompany climbers on this hike, and it takes five days to reach the top. K I L I M A N J A R O , T A N Z A N I A
