Abwechslungsreiche und anspruchsvolle Trekkingtour, ideal für ein sportliches verlängertes Wochenende. Der Wegverlauf entspricht zu grossen Teilen dem GR96 (GR = Grande Randonnée, offizieller Fernwanderweg in Frankreich) und führt durch dünn besiedelte grüne Täler, bunte Blumenwiesen, lichte Wälder und bietet zudem die Möglichkeit, zwei schöne Aussichtsgipfel zu besteigen. Die Sicht auf das Mont-Blanc-Massiv ist ein ständiger Wegbegleiter.

Die Tour du Mont-Blanc ist ein beliebter Fernwanderweg in Europa. Die Tour du Mont-Blanc (auch Mont Blanc-Trail genannt) ist ein Fernwanderweg um das gleichnamige Bergmassiv in den französischen, Italienischen und Schweizer Alpen. Eine unglaublich schöne, aussichtsreiche und manchmal nebelige Wanderung erwartet euch auf der Tour du Mont Blanc. Ich fand die Tour grandios. Chapeau!
