PERSONALISED ITINERARY

Put down the guidebook, delete your spreadsheet and close all your open tabs. It’s time to upgrade to the first purpose-built, all-in-one planning app for multi-day hikers to create an itinerary that is achievable, inspiring and bookable! The app allows you to:

• Create an itinerary in one sitting: Use our extensive trail database to select your route (main or variant) and accommodation directly on the map. Easily visualise your route, broken down day by day, to prepare each day of your trip.

• Automatically calculate hiking stats: Select your accommodation, campground or permitted bivouac location to get accurate daily hiking stats. Your estimated time, distance, and elevation change are automatically calculated and displayed with every route and transport decision.

• Explore accommodation options: We have 140+ accommodation options on and nearby the trail, ranging from mountain huts, hotels, campgrounds and permitted bivouac locations. Information on private v. shared rooms, booking status, and how to book. Great rest day options to choose from too!

• Add transportation to your plan: Easily select transport options (gondola, bus, train) to see the impact to your daily hiking stats. All transport details including 2024 schedules and costs are included in your final GPS map.

• See which properties are taking 2024 online bookings: Don’t miss out on your preferred accommodation by seeing their booking status directly on the map.

This has replaced our personalised itinerary builder, which has been used by hundreds of hikers to plan their unique Tour of Monte Rosa trip.

PERSONALISED ITINERARY DOCUMENT

Our app will automatically produce your own detailed itinerary document, which includes your distance, elevation profile, estimated hiking time, and information on your chosen route. Download and/or print your daily hiking plan and visualise your upcoming adventure.

PLANNING PORTAL

Researching details about the trail and organising your accommodation for the Tour du Mont Blanc can be the most time consuming (and sometimes stressful) part of the planning process, especially when confronted with outdated and conflicting information! We’ve created a ‘Planning Portal’; all the information a self-guided hiker needs to plan their trip in one spot, including;

• Planning: The best time to hike, terrain descriptions, direction to hike, start locations information on hiking speed estimates

• Booking: Information and booking details for accommodation and camping locations, where to fly into and transfer options

• Preparing: Packing list, best weather sources, emergency contact information, how to receive trail updates, and more

This information is reviewed and updated every year to ensure hikers confidently make bookings and prepare for the trail.

GPS MAP

Your personalised GPS trail map allows you to navigate your hike in the same way you would in urban areas. Your map is created based on your specific plan/route and can be used on any Android or Apple smartphone. Key features on your GPS map:

• Your current location is visible on the map

• Your personalized daily hiking statistics are displayed for each section and day of your itinerary

• Coloured markers to highlight points of interest, such as water refill, toilet, food/supermarkets and laundry locations

• Current season transport schedules to reroute your plan if you need to skip ahead on the trail

• Bad weather routes if you need to change to an easier hiking route (where possible)
