Tour Du Mont Blanc

In a couple of weeks I’m off on holiday on a trip to the alps.

I think my leg is pretty good now so I’m going for a walk around Mont Blanc. It’s quite a famous route called the ‘tour du Mont Blanc'. I shall be spending 10 days walking in a huge loop in the mountains around the mighty Mont Blanc. It’s up to an altitude of 2,665m (8,743 ft). It circles the whole Mont Blanc Massif covering a distance of roughly 170 km with 10 km of ascent and passes through parts of Switzerland, Italy and France.

I’ll have to remember to take my camera and hopefully a sun hat!
