Tour du Mont Blanc, July 28 - 30, 2017
By Amy Hackney Blackwell
The Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB, for those in the know) is one of the great Alpine summer walks. The traditional route starts in Chamonix and circles counterclockwise around the Mont Blanc massif in 11 one-day stages.
The Tour du Mont Blanc is a classic for a reason. It’s hard but not TOO hard, and it has a little of everything!
