The Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB) is a 170-km trek that circles the Mont Blanc massif through France, Italy and Switzerland. The route is traditionally walked in the anti-clockwise direction over 11-stages.
Along the way the hikers will visit seven unique and beautiful valleys, where charming hamlets and regional delicacies abound. Between the valleys, the route traverses a rugged mountain landscape and stunning high alpine scenery.
Along the way you’ll stay in remote mountain huts, visit picture perfect landscapes most only dream about, and have a one in a lifetime hiking adventure.

Testimonials
The support we got from you was absolute solid gold. People were in awe that we were trekking as a family and hadn’t hired a guide or one of the big companies to book everything for us.
From the initial guidance to the mapping to the video call we did to the reviews, revisions, and recommendations you gave about our planning – everything was spot on.

I want you to know that you have made this trip possible, no exaggeration.
I would not be going with the confidence I now have and something tells me that if I find myself in a weird situation I have two guides that actually care about me just an email away.
Randy, UK
You need this trekking planner! After buying a book and a map that was not easy to follow, I was introduced to this interactive TMB trekking planner and it is a must have if you are planning your TMB itinerary!
I highly recommend this trail guide! 5 stars!!
