Day 1 hiking part of Tour du Mont Blanc to Refugio del Balme🏔️ We stayed in Les Houches, only a 15 minute bus ride to Chamonix and where the official start/finish of the TMB is. We found a place in town to store our luggage for 2 nights and set off! I took a cable car from Les Houches to cut off some mileage and climbing and then had an almost 14 mile hike to the Refugio My ankle is on the mend fortunately and I didn’t break it. But nothing like some blueberry pie, glass of wine and a delicious dinner after a long day hiking can’t fix ❤️ Hiking gear linked in bio or comment “link” and I’ll send a link of everything I packed for this trip 🥾 karitraa salomon chomps we_are_sungod feetures teva unrlco brooksrunning rei strava garminoutdoor #chamonix #chamonixmontblanc #hiking #tourdumontblanc #france hut to hut hiking
