Set aside 7-10 days for the grand old TMB. Its circular course takes the intrepid walker in a vast loop around the Mont Blanc massif, straddling the border of three nations. It’s usually walked anti-clockwise in the and the highest point is the Col des Fours, 2,665m, where the dome of Mont Blanc towers before the awestruck hiker. It’s also worth considering the Chamonix-Zermatt trail, linking the foot of Mont Blanc with the Matterhorn.
