Overview

The Tour du Mont Blanc is a world-famous long distance trail around the Mont Blanc region. Although its overall length is somewhat short, it passes through three countries and includes spectacular views of the Alps. The area is used to hikers due to the trail's high popularity, so resupply, transportation, and accommodation will be much simpler to arrange. The overall difficulty of the TMB is moderate. The route does run through very mountainous sections that are more demanding, but also runs through easier flat sections. The challenging terrain is somewhat offset by the ease of finding water and food resupply, along with refuges along the way for comfortable sleeping arrangements.
