We just completed the Tour du Mont Blanc, an 11 day, roughly 168km hike from Les Houches, France through Italy, Switzerland, and back into France. We don’t have a lot of time to post pics and comments now as we are still on the road for another couple of weeks before we move home, but we thought we would quickly post some of our favorites.
We took an alternate route on day 2 past Col des Fours, the highest point along our tour at 2665m.

The one photo we have of our hiking buddy Carl, a British Mountain Guide, whom we walked with for a day or two. He is on vacation from guiding but ended up on the mountain trekking and climbing anyhow.

Gorgeous pictures! I think I will have to add this to my list of things I want to do.
Amazing photos and adventure – can’t wait to see you two soon!
stunning! Like Jane, this is now on my list!
Oh my goodness … that was a trip down memory lane. You were hiking around the place where Luke and I first met! But you have much better photos :) I haven’t kept up with your blog but I think of you both often and hope we get a chance to catch up in person this year. Love from all of us.
Wow, what gorgeous pictures & what a great adventure! Looking forward to seeing you around again Allan and meeting you, Winnie
Epic!
