About this ebook
A booklet of all the mapping needed to complete the Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB), a spectacular circuit around Mont Blanc. Covering 170km (105 miles), the TMB takes around 11 days to walk from its official start at Les Houches (France), passing through Courmayeur (Italy) and Champex (Switzerland) before returning to France via the Chamonix Valley. A well-serviced introduction to high-level mountain trekking for walkers with good levels of fitness, it can also be run, fastpacked or hiked in 5–9 days.
- The full route line is shown on 1:25,000 IGN maps
- The map booklet can be used to walk the TMB in either direction
- Handy facilities planner, route summary tables and accommodation listings help you plan your itinerary

About the author
A collaborative effort between Kev Reynolds and Jonathan and Lesley Williams who – following Kev’s death in December 2021 – updated and refreshed the route details, planning resources and maps based on research trips in 2022 and 2023. Jonathan and Lesley are retiring from being Cicerone’s publisher and marketing director (respectively), so have few excuses for not spending days in the hills.
