  4. Tour du Mont Blanc

The Tour du Mont-Blanc (TMB) is one of the most famous hikes in the world. It is an itinerary that follows a loop of over 170km around the Mont-Blanc massif, crossing France, Switzerland and Italy.

The TMB generally takes between 7 and 11 days to complete, depending on the pace and stages chosen. It offers spectacular views of the mountains, glaciers and Alpine lakes, as well as total immersion in the wilderness.

The traditional start is in Chamonix, France, and follows a counter-clockwise route that crosses several high-altitude passes, including the Col de la Seigne and the Col de Balme. It also passes through several picturesque mountain towns, such as Courmayeur in Italy and Champex in Switzerland.
