Huge thanks to Jamie and Sebastiano for providing us with the best experience for our first trip to Europe! We were well looked after, and would gladly follow these two incredible hosts anywhere in the world!

A great trek around Mont Blanc

The TMB is a fabulous tour & is thoroughly recommended. My insights would be: Going clockwise really does work in terms of getting the hill-legs trained up as the steeper climbs then come later in the tour. Note that this does mean that you have to do some ladders on the first day but if you take your time they are fine. The weather of course makes a huge difference & we were lucky enough to have mostly sunny days, with just a couple of days at the end which made us take alternative routes. The views are fantastic & there’s lots of wildlife about if you take a bit of time to look for it. The campsites were generally very good. Just be prepared for toilets without seats, & even some that are the old-style hole in the ground (which we successfully avoided as the campsites weren’t busy when we were there). The wild camps were lovely, particularly the one in Les Chapieux - this does require a wash in the nearby river, but the water is surprisingly ‘warm’ Most meals were in camp, but there were about 5 evening meals out which were very good. For the swimmers there are opportunities to swim on the first day in the lake below Lac Blanc, & at Champex Lac. I guess each leader/trip is different, but to give you a feel for it, a typical day is to wake up about 0630, get your kit sorted/bag packed, take your tent down, have breakfast, make your packed lunch so that you’re ready to go soon after 8. That is usually a ‘soft’ target as you’re generally just walking from the campsite, but one morning you do have to catch a bus. We were generally finished walking between 4 & 5pm. Charging points for phones etc ! These were available at all campsites but Les Chapieux. I would recommend that you take a power pack & charge that up, rather than leaving your phone/watch on the charging point - only to be safe, we didn’t have anything stolen, but you are on a campsite & losing a power pack would be less distressing than a phone/watch.

Mont Blanc Highlights is the perfect title for this trip. The walks and views were amazing every day and the weather just got better and better as the week progressed.
