La Jonction is my favorite hike ever. I have done 5 of the 7 hikes and now I noted down the other ones ;) Thank you for the work!
Thank you very much for your video series. Very inspiring! Greetings from Germany 😊
Thanks for taking time to leave this kind comment! Knowing people actually enjoy it inspires me to keep making new videos.
thank you for sharing, will try one in this July :)
Enjoy man! Definitely check out the Komoot collection. There's more hikes in there than there are on this video.
Thank you!
can't wait to try them this summer - i'm doing half of the TMB but want to do some less crowded trails
Awesome! Don't hesitate to reach out if you're doubting between options. :)
I would flash the names of the hikes on the screen, run trip mileage, and elevation gain.
That's a good tip
Thanks and well done Dieter…would maybe get good to indicate the distances and timings
This is what the Komoot routes I am sharing here show :)
Hi Dieter. Thanks for the information and pleasant videos. Are these hikes good for dogs?
Great video! Is it possible to do these hikes in October? Cheers
Yes, depending on the weather at the time, you have a good chance these hikes are good to go in October.
Hi, great video, will be visiting in September, is it ok to camp / bivi thanks
Thanks - will check them out. How many days would you recommend in Chamonix for first time visitors? Looks like there are plenty of hikes in the area. Planning on six days including a couple in Courmayeur.
If you like hiking that timeline sounds perfect! Make sure to keep a day for gear shopping. Chamonix has a lot of brand stores;
If you are on a budget, then Camping Bellevue is good place to stay. Les Houches also has the best supermarket in the area. Buses to Chamonix go regularly.
Campsite in Chamonix is a bit roadnoisy. Wild camping is best.
Hi Dieter,
Great video, thanks.
Wanted to ask for some advice. Would you recommend to rather sleep in Charmonix for 2 nights and do daily hikes or stay at Refuges and hike out from there? If you would advice Refuges then which ones would you recommend? Coming to Charmonix for 3 nights end of Sep this year.
Refuges are often crowded and noisy. You'll have a better quality of life resting in an accommodation in the valley :)
Hey Dieter,
Aangezien ik in mijn vriendengroep de enige ben met een passie voor de bergen, zoek ik leuke organisaties om guided hikes te doen in groep. Heb je aanraders wat betreft organisaties?
Hey Kasper. Ik zou eerder clubs zoals Hiking Advisor aanraden. De meeste organisaties verkopen laagdrempelige clichés om moeite te minimaliseren en winst te maximaliseren.
Hi Dieter. A very happy St. Patrick's Day from Ireland. My question for you is this. My partner and I will be travelling to Chamonix at the beginning of June however we won't have a car. Can the hikes you recommend be accessed from Chamonix by foot? Vielen dank fur ihre hilfe. Apologies I couldn't insert the umlaut over the u!! Sinéad.
Hi, yes some if not most are doable with public transport or on foot from Chamonix. Make sure to check out the map of the Komoot collection in the description. :)
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Hi there, thanks for sharing.
Are these hikes possible to go on our own? Good signs and paths so we don't get lost?
Or we need a guide or tour?
Thanks
If you know how to use the Komoot app you can use my routes linked in the description
Hey Dieter! I'm doing the Tour des Aiguilles Rouges next week, can you recommend me a weather app for the region? Cheers!
Meteoblue and "my weather" (meteo France)
What level are these hikes ?
All ranges. Every hike has its own video with a detailed description
Hello Dieter,
My wife and I are thinking about hiking there during the second fornight of May. Will snow melt down enough then?
Depends, there's likely to be plenty of old snow left above 2000m
Thanks Dieter, just one question more. We often hike, here, in Spain, but we are not usted to do it on snow. Do you think, a totally greenhorn like us without any training can do the hike of la jonction or Lac Blanc or it will be too dangerous? Thanks again for your patience!
@@cuatemelon the main danger with old hard spring snow is potentially long and dangerous slides. Heed caution and avoid steep sections
which of these would you recommend to solo traveler (mid strength and energy)
All of them except Mt Buet
Are any of these hike possible mid-April without snow and ice gear?
That's unlikely but not impossible. Only the very short term weather forecast will be able to confirm. But mid-April is technically still ski season.
Hi!!! How about mid June? Can we be more relaxed with the hike and not wear any snow gear? Thank you!
@@randomronisrandom mid June will make most of these hikes possible. :)
Hi Dieter - thanks for the video. How is the hike from Planpraz to Brevent Peak to Aiguillette des Houches to Les Houches. I'm thinking maybe August hopefully no snow. Just wondering if you know the distance and elevation gain, and any technical challenges (any scrambling or a Class 1 trail, or any sort of challenges)?
Hi Vicky. Snow shouldn't be an obstacle in August. Certainly not if this summer will be as hot as the last one. I'd need to look at the map to dig up the exact numbers. Feel free to reach out to me on Instagram in case I forget.
@@DieterVanHolder Hi! Thanks for the reply. I'm not on Instagram, but numbers not so important. More wondering if you have hiked up to the summit then to Aiguillette des Houches from Brevent Peak then down to Les Houches, and if technical at all or Class 2 (scramble type climb or any crazy exposure). Just haven't seen anyone who has done that route. Thank you!
@@vickij8417 if you follow the marked trails there is no scrambling in the UK sense of the word, nor extreme exposure. The mountainside sometimes gets steep, but there is such a high volume of walkers there that the trails are mostly broad and well worn in. Of course, everyone experiences exposure differently. But it's a walk. It's not Crib Goch in Snowdonia.
@@DieterVanHolder ...haha! Thank you! I questioned on a FB site if the TMB trail is Class 1, and maybe some sections of Class 2 going up to summits, and someone responded saying it's more like Class 3 and 4, so was a bit confused. I figured the person had his own definition of Class 3 and 4. Love your videos. Thank you! If you were going to do one good hike in Chamonix, not on the TMB, which one would you recommend?
@@vickij8417 if you have a car, that would be the Aiguillette des Houches. If you want a lighter day I would suggest Le Chapeau. There's videos on both of them in my playlist here.
The trail rating system difference between countries is a pain indeed. The TDMB itself is purely a walk. Alpine walking. But not a scramble to UK standards.
