The challenging Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB) is one of the most amazing treks in the world. This 10-day itinerary takes you through three countries –France, Italy and Switzerland – hiking along the most stunning scenery in the Alps.
We will start from Chamonix, in France, and for the next 10 days we will continue our trek clockwise around the Mont Blanc massif, discovering breathtaking views along the way, staying in mountain huts and Bed&Breakfast accommodation.
Please note this is a demanding trek, so you need previous trekking experience and a very good fitness level, being able to hike for at least 4 to 5 hours on mountain trails. You can check the day-by-day itinerary below, including altitude and kilometers for each day.

I'm passionate about nature and trekking. I invite you to join me to discover the beautiful Tatras mountain range and the area around it!
