As the start date of hiking is taken August 8, 1786 when French physician Michel Gabriel Paccard and guide Jacques Balmat climbed to the top of Mont Blanc (4,810 m). This rise was prompted by the Swiss scientist Horace-Bénédict de Saussure. It was in the Alps that the first hiking tours of the unspoiled peaks were organized, with the presence of local guides.
