2025 Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB) Trekking -Enjoyment Exploration Tour
The Mont Blanc Grand Loop (TMB) is the abbreviation of Tour du Mont Blanc, which is unanimously regarded as a world-class hiking route by mountaineers. The main peak of Mount Brant is 4810 high, and its mountain range spans the borders of France, Switzerland and Italy. The low altitude of the Alps can form permanent glaciers and perennial snow, which allows hikers to enjoy the snowy mountains, alpine hiking culture and European customs while avoiding the problem of altitude sickness.
