When I first planned to hike the Tour du Mont Blanc, I spent a lot of time searching for advice on what to pack. I realized quickly that packing only the essentials is far more important than bringing everything you think you might need “just in case.”
To prepare, I read posts from experienced hikers on social media and forums. Their insights helped me create my packing list, but I also learned a lot during the hike itself. There’s nothing like real experience to show you what works and what doesn’t.
In this blog, I’ll share the packing tips I wish I had before starting my TMB hike. I hope it helps you pack smart, travel light, and enjoy every step of your adventure.
