Walk the iconic alpine trail through Switzerland, Italy and France
Our start point is the campsite in Les Bossons, with wonderful views from the campsite of Mont Blanc and the dramatic crevassed Glacier des Bossons, especially at sunset. In the evening there is an introductory briefing by the trek crew. *Campsite:** *Camping Les Marmottes, Le Bossons
From Les Bossons (1,012m – 3320ft) we have a short bus journey to Chamonix from where we walk to Les Praz and take the cable car to La Flégère (1,860m – 6100). The trail today is named the 'Grand Balcon' and is on the opposite side of the valley from Mont Blanc, affording excellent views of the whole massif lying to our south. Initially we contour and then climb to reach the high point of the day, Lac Blanc (2352m - 7715ft). The trail descends and then contours high above the valley before dropping steeply to the hamlet of Les Frasserands (1,371m - 4500ft). In the afternoon there is a very short section of ladders/steep steps with handrails to descend. 8.00 hours walking. 500m – 1640ft up, 980m – 3220ft down *Campsite:* Camping Les Rocailles, Champex Lac
Distance in Km: 10
Distance in Miles: 6
We begin by climbing steeply to the Aiguillette de Posettes (2201m – 7200ft), descend a little and then ascend towards the Col de Balme (2,191m – 7190ft) where we follow one of the paths across the border from France to Switzerland. Excellent views all morning of Aiguille d'Argentière and Aiguille du Tour and its glacier. After lunch we descend to the small hamlet of Trient (1296m – 4250ft). Good views of the Trient Glacier. 7.5 hours walking. 970m – 3200ft up, 1060m – 3466ft *Campsite*: Basic Camping, near Trient
Distance in Km: 13
Distance in Miles: 8
We climb first to the Col de Forclaz (1527m – 5010ft) and then onwards from where we can look directly down into the Rhône Valley and the Swiss town of Martigny. We follow a historic path used to take the cows to summer grazing, the 'Bovine route' (2049m – 6720ft) that takes us through meadows and high alpine pastures before descending to the charming town of Champex (1486m – 4880ft) set beside a picturesque alpine lake. 7 hours walking. 920m – 3017ft up, 720m – 3261ft down *Campsite*: Camping Les Rocailles, Champex Lac
Distance in Km: 16
Distance in Miles: 10
Now on the east side of the main Mont Blanc massif we walk south, descending through woods to the Val Ferret and on to Issert (1,055m – 3460ft) and other pretty alpine farming villages. This is also quite a good day for flowers earlier in the season, including orchids. We continue up the valley to the remote village of La Fouly (1600m - 5250ft) which lies at the foot of Mont Dolent, whose summit marks the meeting point of France, Switzerland and Italy. 6 hours walking, 440m – 1450ft down, 540m – 1780ft up *Campsite*: Camping les Glaciers, La Fouly
Distance in Km: 15
Distance in Miles: 9
Still following the same valley and the river 'La Drance', we climb to the 'Grand Col Ferret' (2537m – 8320ft), the highest pass of the tour. Now in Italy, the valley is also called 'Val Ferret'. The mountain views from the Col are stunning with Grandes Jorasses dominating the scene. We walk down the valley to Arp Nouva (1,770m – 5800ft) where we then take an optional bus to Planpincieux (1,600m – 5250ft). For the first and last trip of the season the bus may not be running and we may need to walk to camp. 7.5 hours walking. 970m - 3180ft up, 800m – 2600ft down. *Campsite*: Camping Grands Jorasses, Val Ferret
Distance in Km: 14
Distance in Miles: 9
The nearby ex-spa towns of Courmayeur and Entrèves have picturesque older sections, which are worth a visit, especially for the keen photographer. There is a cable car from La Palud to Point Helbronner (3461m – 11350ft) and on across the glacier to the Aiguille du Midi (and in fact on down to Chamonix). This is a splendid (optional) excursion, which gives close-up views of all the big peaks. *Campsite*: Camping Grands Jorasses, Val Ferret
We start with a short bus ride to pick up the TMB and from the road (1675m – 5500ft ) climb up to the Bonatti refuge (2025m – 6640ft). Today we follow a beautiful contouring path around Mont de la Saxe to Courmayeur. The views of the south Mont Blanc massif are exceptional as are those of the towering, peaks of the 'Grandes Jorasses' and the glaciers which crowd the northern flank of the Val Ferret. In the afternoon we have a long, steep descent to Courmayeur (1230m – 4030m) (superb ice creams!) from where we take a short bus ride into the spectacular Val Veny (1530m – 5020ft). 8 hours walking. 500m – 1640ft up, 900m 4400ft down *Campsite*: Camping Aiguille Noire, Val Veny
Distance in Km: 14
Distance in Miles: 9
The trail climbs gently along the Val Veny beneath the moraine of the massive glacier du Miage and passes Lac Combal before the gradient becomes steeper as we follow the old Roman road across today's pass, the 'Col de la Seigne' (2516m – 8250ft), marking our re-entry into France. A fairly steep descent brings us through La Ville des Glaciers (1,789m – 5870ft) and finally to Les Chapieux (1553m – 5090ft), a small hamlet which is only inhabited in the summer months. This is one of the longer walking days. 8.5 hours walking. 990m – 3250ft up, 970m – 3180ft down *Campsite*: Basic Camping, Chapieux
Distance in Km: 24
Distance in Miles: 15
We have now reached the southwest corner of the circuit and turn north to climb once again. Today is a longer day; first we make a steep climb to the Col de la Croix du Bonhomme (2478m – 8130ft) and then contour around to the Col du Bonhomme (2328m – 7640ft). We then descend (again on a Roman road) to our campsite in Les Contamines (1180m - 5900ft). 8 hours walking. 930m – 3050ft up, 1375m – 4510ft *Campsite*: Camping le Pontet, Les Contamines
Distance in Km: 17
Distance in Miles: 11
There are short and long optional walks in the area, many accessed by a chairlift or gondola, that have spectacular views of Mont Blanc. Mountain cafes make a nice place for a scenic lunch. Alternatively, you could take the Mont Blanc cog driven tramway to the eagle’s nest – the starting point for many wanting to conquer Mont Blanc itself. There is little there but the view but the journey is charming and scenic. Otherwise time can be spent visiting the half-day market in Les Contamines, or you can simply relax around town or in camp and recharge your batteries for the days ahead. *Campsite: Camping le Pontet, Les Contamines*
Another long day; we walk through Les Contamines, ascend to Chalets du Truc (1720m – 5614ft) and then descend to the Chalets de Miage (1,560m – 4120ft). From here we take the trail that climbs steeply to the Col de Tricot (2119m – 6950ft) before descending very close to the snout of the Glacier de Bionnassay where we will enjoy good views of the north side of the Mont Blanc massif. Eventually we make another short ascent to reach the Col de Voza (1652m – 5418ft) where we re-enter the Chamonix Valley and descend to the village of Les Houches (dependent on the time of year there is optional cable car descent from Bellevue to Les Houches). A short bus ride takes us to our camp in Les Bossons (1,012m – 3320ft). 9 hours walking. 1200m – 3980ft up, 1370m – 4500ft down *Campsite*: Camping les Marmottes, Les Bossons
Distance in Km: 18
Distance in Miles: 11
We cross to the north side of the Chamonix Valley and climb through pine forest. The high point of the day is Brevent (2525m – 8290ft) from where there are panoramic views of the Mont Blanc Massif and the Chamonix Valley. We walk down to Plan Praz (1970m - 6460ft) and then descend by cable car to Chamonix and then on to our camp at Les Bossons (1012m - 3320ft). It is possible to take the cable car descent from the top (dependent on the time of the season), this extra journey will be payble locally should you choose not to walk. Our last day on the TMB circuit is long with a tough climb of over 1500m but affords the best views of Mont Blanc and its neighbours of the whole trek. 7.5 hours walking. 1480m – 4850ft up, 520m – 1690ft down *Campsite*: Camping Les Marmottes, Les Bossons
Distance in Km: 11
Distance in Miles: 7
Today is a free day for optional walks or sightseeing. Your leader will be able to advise you of possible walking routes or you may choose to visit the bustling alpine resort town of Chamonix, which has numerous shops, bars, restaurants and cafés. There are several cable car excursions you can make from Chamonix, of which the most spectacular is the ascent to the Aiguille du Midi (3842m - 12600ft), offering fantastic views of Mont Blanc and surrounding peaks. It should also be possible to take the mountain train up to Montenvers for close up views of the glacier, Mer de Glace or if you are feeling adventurous you could enjoy a tandem Paragliding flight. * Campsite: Camping Les Marmottes, Les Bossons*
* 14 nights supported camping, mostly in good campsites with hot showers
* 10 days walking with vehicle support; 3 rest days
* 8 days challenging and 2 days moderate walking
* Altitude maximum 2537m, average 1525m
We provide 8 home cooked 3 course group meals in camp, 14 breakfasts and 10
picnic lunches. 5 group menu meals will be taken in local restaurants and
will be payable locally €110 per person. Due to the small size and
remoteness of several of these restaurants and for speed when serving a large
group these will be set menus. Your leader will collect money for these at
the beginning of the trip. If you wish to opt out of these please let them
know.
Breakfast: Will usually consist of coffee, tea, cereal, yoghurt, fresh fruit,
bread, and conserves.
Lunch: Picnic style lunches will normally include bread, cold meat, cheese,
sometimes boiled eggs or tinned fish, fresh salad vegetables and fresh fruit.
You may wish to bring (or purchase locally), snack bars for an extra energy
boost throughout the day.
Evening meal: Whether in camp or in a nearby restaurant will consist of a
first course of soup, salad or charcuterie, a main course of meat with one or
two vegetables or rice or pasta and a dessert course.
Beer, wine, bottled water, coffee, tea or other drinks are not included in
the price of evening meals taken in restaurants. Coffee and tea are included
with the evening meal when we eat in camp and beer and wine are also
available for purchase at a modest cost.
Vegetarians will usually find that there is little difficulty, as long as
they are prepared to be reasonably flexible.
If you take a vegan diet you should expect that variety of food may be
limited whilst on this trip as this kind of diet is relatively uncommon in
this region. We cannot guarantee that the restaurants will provide meals that
have the necessary variety to be considered satisfying when on a more
restricted diet.
The feedback we receive for the food we serve is great but please be aware
that facilities are limited and practicality forces us to put our efforts in
to make one excellent group meal with a vegetarian option. Of course, we will
respect allergies but otherwise please don’t expect us to be able to make
cook you an a la crate meal to suit your personal tastes.

* Altitude maximum 2537m, average 1525m
This trip is graded Activity Level 4 (moderate/challenging) - it involves 10
days of walking; 2 days at a Moderate level and 8 days at a Challenging
level. Most of the days are long, quite often involving an ascent of
900-1200m (or 3000 - 4000 feet), equivalent to 3 to 4 hours walking uphill,
followed by a similar descent. Although the paths are well maintained there
are sections that are rough underfoot. On day 2 there are 2 metal ladders
to descend en route from Lac Blanc, these are secured against the rock,
consist of approximately 12 steps and are not difficult to climb down. The
route throughout is non-technical however we will be walking mountain paths
and this trip is not advised for severe vertigo sufferers.
Please be aware on days 6 and 8 we take a short bus transfer to avoid
trekking on busy roads.
Most people trek the TMB anti clockwise. From years of experience we have
discovered that trekking the route clockwise allows for quieter trails and
avoids a tough ascent of the first couple of days. The views and walks are
still just as beautiful in this direction.
As this is a group holiday you need to be confident that your fitness will
allow you to enjoyably walk at a consistent and steady pace that matches the
group average, therefore allowing the group to finish the day at a reasonable
time. You will also enjoy the trek a great deal more if your fitness allows
you to walk the route in relative ease. A Challenging graded day would be
equivalent to walking between 3 to 5 hours uphill and a similar time
descending downhill, so up to 9 hours in total depending on the pace
(including breaks). Due of the lower altitude, climate, and overall comfort
of this trek, it is graded Level 4 (moderate/challenging). The Activity Level
reflects that overall endurance of the trip, not just the ease of any
particular walk. Other treks with a higher Activity Level, requiring a higher
overall endurance due to their remoteness, lack of facilities or average
weather etc, may have shorter easier walks. Please read the daily itineraries
below when make comparisons to other walks/trips you may have done before.
If you are unable to walk during the itinerary and want to opt out of a day,
please take note that this can sometimes be a little tricky dependent on
where on the circuit you are. To reach the next point you will need to take a
public bus (which run at limited times) or taxi (which can be expensive when
in a more remote location). Our support vehicle is not suitable for taking
passengers so please be aware of this when deciding to book this trip.
Download our Fitness Training Guide [1] for more information on our Activity
Levels.
All ascents, descents and walking distances listed below are approximates. We
have decided the most accurate method is to map the routes carefully using
google earth. That said it is impossible to obtain a completely true figure
of the distances walked. Regarding GPS - due to the inherent inaccuracies of
defining an exact waypoint with a GPS and the cumulative overall inaccuracy
this causes, you may find that our distances and GPS distances you obtain on
trek with your personal GPS/phone, may differ by quite a margin. Timings
stated include lunch and photo stops and will vary depending on the pace of
your group.
This trek is based on the 'supported camping' concept, with a vehicle doing
all the hard work of transporting luggage, equipment and supplies. Whilst
camping the support leader will erect your tent but, in the morning you will
be expected to pack away your own tent (these are modern pop up style tents
that are very easy and quick to fold away and pack) and deliver your own bags
to the back of the van. On 4 of the 8 nights we eat in camp you should expect
to help with the washing up as well as washing your own breakfast dishes each
morning.
*Please note: On this trip it is essential to have helicopter evacuation
cover within your travel insurance.*

Camping
The campsites are mainly comfortable and modern with hot showers and
electricity to recharge batteries etc. Many have a bar and WiFi and a lounge
or sitting area to relax in. We provide a large communal tent (if we do not
use the campsites communal area) where we eat at tables with benches and have
an unlimited tea and coffee station, camp bar and some more relaxing seating
such as inflatable sofas. The campsite are in stunning settings and sharing
an after trek drink with newly made friends as the sun sets over a glaciated
mountain vista is the perfect way to enjoy the great outdoors.
Accompanying you throughout the trek is a dedicated camp support leader who
will take care of all the logistics and catering. Your tent will be put up
for you each night. In the morning you will be asked to take your own tent
down, put your bag in the back of the van and wash up your own personal
breakfast dish. On four nights out of fourteen you will be asked to join a
washing team and help with the dishes of that night. A 20 minute job.
Otherwise you are free to relax and your time is your own.
You will spend 14 nights camping in roomy 3 person tents, but with a maximum
of 2 people per tent. We use modern dome tents incorporating a 210 cm x 210
cm inner tent with sewn in ground sheet and a supplementary 230 cm x 70 cm
covered porch that is an ideal place to leave your walking boots and poles
etc. The tents are completely waterproof and packing them away should take
no more than 3 to 4 minutes each morning. Single tents are available for a
small additional cost as are camping mats and sleeping bags with liner and
pillow. Our camping mats are a full length air and foam filled variety which
are comfortable to sleep on and provide excellent insulation from the
ground. Our sleeping bags have a synthetic filling, as opposed to feathers,
with a 3/4 length zip and are rated for good warmth.
All our equipment is bought with both comfort and practicality in mind and we
hope represents a higher quality than most individuals would buy for
themselves.
Two remote campsite are in a stunning areas but is a little more basic than
average and do not have showers. We eat in restaurants on these nights.
Thermal matress hire: £32 - please request in advance with your sales agent.
Sleeping bag hire (3 or 4 season), pillow and liner: £63 - please request
in advance with your sales agent.
Single tent hire: From £150 - please request in advance with your sales
agent.
Comfortable camping and beautiful scenery on the Mont Blanc 
We provide a qualified International Mountain Leader to escort the group on
each walking day. Our walking leaders are true mountain professionals, as
well as being skilled group leaders they are there to help assure safety on
the mountain. They also impart their knowledge of the wider mountain
environment such as flora and fauna, geology, weather and local customs. Our
support leaders are also vital members of the team and ensure that the camp
is set up and ready when you walk off the hill (whereever practically
possible) and hot, tasty and nutritious food is served.
We provide 8 home cooked 3 course group meals in camp, 14 breakfasts and 10
picnic lunches. 5 group menu meals will be taken in local restaurants and
will be payable locally €110 per person. Due to the small size and
remoteness of several of these restaurants and for speed when serving a large

All transport mentioned in the itinerary and cable cars (except where these
are marked as optional) are included. Transport and excursions on the three
static days are not included. For the transfers to and from Geneva airport we
normally use a private coach. Other Exodus groups heading out to trek in the
Alps may share this transfer.
*Travelling flight inclusive from London: 15 days*
The group flight from London is a daytime flight departing on Day 1 of the
itinerary.
*Flights from London*
We normally use the scheduled services of Swiss International Airlines
(depending on availability). As flight timings and schedules change regularly
we recommend you call one of our specialist sales staff or your agent to
confirm up‐to‐date timings. Please note timings may change at a later
date and cannot be confirmed until approximately two weeks before departure.
*/Train from London/*/
We can book your train travel to this trip. Starting at London St Pancras,
you'll change trains in Paris and spend the day travelling through beautiful
mountainous terrain, crossing the spectacular Cize-Bolozon viaduct over the
Ain Gorge, before arriving at Geneva in the early evening, and transferring

Your trip normally starts at the campsite in Les Bossons on Day 1 of the
itinerary. Details of how to reach the start point are provided it the Final
Joining Instructions - sent approximately two weeks before departure.
*Low cost airlines*
It is possible to fly direct to Geneva with some budget airlines. It is
likely that flights from regional airports will arrive at different times to
the group flight from London; where this is the case a wait at the airport
for the group transfer, or alternative transfer arrangements at your own
cost, may be necessary (see below).
Alternative flight options: Bristol, Manchester, Gatwick, Luton, Liverpool,
Edinburgh ‐ Easyjet. Heathrow ‐ BA. City, Heathrow ‐ Swiss Air.
Airport transfers are included for those on the group flights. Please note
that transfers are not included for clients arriving on any other flight,
even if Exodus has booked it.
*Airport Transfers for land only itinerary*
Those arriving/departing on non‐group flights can join the group transfer
free of charge (by prior arrangement only) if your flight arrives before or,
at the end of the holiday, departs after the group flight. Please note that
transfers are not included for clients arriving on any other flight, even if
it has been booked for you by Exodus. Please check with the Exodus office if
you are unsure whether or not a transfer is included. As mentioned group
flights can be rescheduled, so you must check the group flight details 2
weeks before departure. If you do not take this transfer, or miss it, you
must make your own way to the joining point at your own expense.
For those arriving at different times to the group flight it is very easy to
book a bus transfer with a local company and you should do this at least a
week before your departure date. A shared transfer (with others who have
booked with them also) will cost approximately €30 one way if booked in
advance with our partner Mountain Drop Offs. Book on their website ‐
www.mountaindropoffs.com
and"http://www.mountaindropoffs.com/"www.mountaindropoffs.comand quote the
following promotional code EXOCHX. Unfortunately, the discounted rates only
run from 17 June to 10 September. Outside this time the full price will be
charged.
*Take The Train*
Both Geneva Airport and Chamonix are easy to reach by train. If you book a
train to coincide with the group flight timings there is a station inside
Geneva airport itself. You are then welcome to join our free group transfer
to Les Bossons (by prior arrangement only). We recommend that you allow at
least 1 hour for travel across Paris by Metro. Alternatively, it is possible
to get a train direct to Les Bossons, the campsite is a short walk from the
station. It is only possible to reserve train seats 3 months before your
departure date and our sales team will be happy to book this for you in
cooperation with Rail Europe.
From late June to early October fair weather is to be expected, but all
mountain ranges create their own weather patterns and the Alps are no
exception. It can and does rain and especially on the high passes it can be
surprisingly cold at times. Expected daytime temperatures are in the range of
15 to 25ºC in the valleys (although it can sometimes reach 30ºC in
July/August), 5 to 15ºC on the passes (though it will feel colder if wet and
windy) and 5 to 15ºC in the valleys at night; possibly a little lower early
and late in the season. There is always the possibility of lying snow,
especially in the early season, and snowfall even in August and September
when we may find new snow on the passes. Please note that on late season
treks (September) the days are shorter and we will need to make early starts
to make the most of the available daylight hours.
All camping equipment is provided except for your own sleeping bag and mat:
the equipment we use is of a high standard and includes easy to erect, roomy
three person tents, dining tent, stools, lighting, all pots, pans, stoves,
crockery and utensils. The support vehicle carries the camping equipment and
your luggage from campsite to campsite whilst on the trek for all days. The
support driver collects fresh supplies of food each day and will normally
have the dining tent up and the kettle on by the time the walkers arrive in
the afternoon.
You will need to bring:
4 season sleeping bag - some camps are as high as 1600m (over 5000 feet)

reduce plastic waste
Snack bars for an extra energy boost throughout the day
The cost of the extra lunches varies depending on whether you want to picnic
or eat in a restaurant, and an average of €17 per lunch should suffice. For
the free dinner allow €25. You will also need money for drinks in cafés or
huts during the day's walk and drinks in restaurants where we take our
evening meal. Typically a large café au lait or a soft drink would cost
between €5-6, and a glass of beer €6-8. A bottle of wine can be bought
for approximately €10-20 in these restaurants.
For cable cars not included (that are optional to take dependent on the time
of year) you should budget €30.
