Monte Bianco – Les Trois Mont Blanc
A long high-altitude mountain route that requires excellent physical fitness and a good level of training. It takes its name from the fact that, to reach the summit of Mont Blanc, you must pass via the Mont Blanc du Tacul and the Mont Maudit. From a technical point of view, a certain level of experience in using crampons and an ice axe is required.

The ‘Three Mont Blancs’ Crossing
The route starts from the Cosmiques refuge, not far from the Col du Midi. You begin by climbing northwards along the standard route up the first of the three Mont Blancs. After passing an initial section with many seracs, the climb continues to the right, reaching the shoulder of the Mont Blanc du Tacul.
Cross over to the opposite side to reach the Col Maudit. The ascent continues across the large glacial cirque of Mont Maudit, and after climbing a short but steep slope of around 50 degrees, you reach the Col du Mont Maudit (4,345 m).
From this gently sloping pass, you reach the Colle della Brenva (4,309 m), and from here begins the final stretch along the north-east ridge of Mont Blanc, which, after the final steep ascent of the Mur de la Cote, leads to the summit.
