Dankjewel! Het is zeker een aanrader. Lekker dichtbij ook

@@Hikaholics Voor mij iets verder. Ik woon in Madrid, Spanje. 😀 Maar wie weet...

Thank you so much! Hope you will love chamonix as much as we do. We purchased a day pass indeed. There is this chamonix day pass which includes all the rides in the area of chamonix. You can buy your tickets at every cable car entry and can get information about which pass suits best for you! There are even passes for multiple days and for the whole season!

Thank you so much! That’s really sweet ❤️ we know people who have hiked the TMB during the winter months (November , December), but then there will be a lot of snow. You really have to be well equipped and experienced to hike this trail when there is a lot of snow. We hiked parts of the TMB in September and then there was no snow and the autumn colors where absolutely amazing! So yeah, keep a close eye on the trail conditions and decide for yourself if you are experienced enough for the conditions there are at that moment. Have you checked if refuge lac blanc has a winter room? Refuges leave a door open during the winter months for people to crash if they need a place to stay. Otherwise there is refuge de la flegere! Not sure if that one is open in October Ps: there are webcams around the mountains of chamonix for people to watch the trail conditions. For around lack of blanc you can watch the camera of flegere Pps: there is also a super helpful Facebook group for people who hike the TMB. Maybe you can find people there who will hike it in October as well and plan together?

Jazeker!

@@Hikaholicshah lekker! Ik ga volgende week naar hardangervidda. Tips? Miss ook tips voor lusjes om te maken van 3/4 dagen?

Glad our videos help with planning your TMB adventure! Indeed, we had lots of rain unfortunately, but also a lot of beautiful weather days 😍 nonetheless, we absolutely loved hiking this trail ❤️

Klopt!

Thank you so much Ben!! It really was an incredible hike 😍 Hope you are having a lovely summer as well

Hi there! These are great questions! I think you can best ask these questions to cumulus directly since we just bought the ‘standard’ bag. We did not alter anything to the bag. The cumulus team could probably help you way more specific However, in our opinion, these are our answers to your questions: There is a this section at the Cumulus website where you can customize your whole bag. And I see that you can fill your sleeping bag with extra down filling. So that’s totally possible. Our bag is super lofty, so I definitely think there can be more down filling stuffed in it. About the zipper: only when deen uses this sleeping bag the zipper snags haha 😂 when I (Alet) use the bag, I don’t have anyproblems with the zipper… so probably if you handle the bag with some care, you will be fine with the smaller upper. For the dimensions of the bag, you can customize the bags in every shape and form you want. That’s really awesome about cumulus. If we buy a new sleeping bag, we would change the foot box into a waterproof material.

❤️❤️

Glad you liked it! ❤️

Hi Sylvia! Great question, we use AllTrails for all our trails/GPS tracks. Hope you will like the TMB as much as we did

Hi Sylvia! Great question, we use AllTrails for all our trails/GPS tracks

Thank you so much ❤️ It means the world to us. We hope so too that you can visit Sweden 🇸🇪

Thank you so much for your kind words!! ❤️❤️ we definitely need to catch up on your channel as well. Would love to hike around Kyoto!

Thank you for the great compliment! We started the TMB in the end of June and finished in the beginning of July 😊

@@Hikaholics We will be there in mid July 2024. Hopefully no rains nor thunders. We just do 7 Stages only. What Stages do not have water along the route? Thank you again.

Thanks guys!

Thank you! ❤️

O my haha!! That’s quite the adventure, hope you will enjoy the trail as much as we did!

Hi!! Thank you so much ❤️ We can’t wait to be back to the Hoga kusten

Thanks!

Thank you!! We were in Sardinia during September. For the time of the year it was super hot. Not usual. They recommend not hiking this trail during the summer months since it can be super hot and not much water to drink along the route. However, the trail itself is super pretty. We talked to someone from the organization who said that springtime is the most beautiful time in his opinion because of all the wild flowers

Thank you so much! ❤️ Yeah, we’ve hiked the Hoga kustenleden in the middle/end of September. It’s the perfect timing if you ask us since it is not too cold and the autumn colors are really popping during this month

So cool! You will love the other stages for sure 😊

Dankjewel!

❤️❤️❤️

Aaaaah that’s so sweet ❤️❤️ you watching 13 minutes of advertisement helps us to earn a little bit of money from our videos ❤️ So thank you so so so much!

Thank you! It is a well known trail in the BeNeLux, however, outside Belgium the Netherlands or Luxembourg it isn’t that well known. It was wonderful, thank you’

Wat een lieve woorden 🥰🥰 Dankjewel!

Ha Frank! Wat super leuk om te horen. Blij dat we jouw geliefde Luxemburg mooi in beeld hebben kunnen brengen. Er gaan nog veel meer video’s komen 😍

Ow wauw ik ben heel benieuwd 😍 zo gaaf dat jullie dit zo mooi weten te maken en wat leuk dat jullie dit zo hebben ervaren ondanks dat het zo nat was. Heel gaaf toppers💪😊🥾

Dankjewel!

You are welcome!

You're welcome ❤ The jacket holds up like the best! Still my nr1 rain jacket

❤

Have you hiked the TMB?

@@Hikaholics hi, yes - solo’ed it in 6 days in Jul 2022. I appreciate that my opinion is somewhat contrary to the mainstream. Spent many years without poles, then many with poles - and now reverted back to without.

Amazing! If you can do it in 6 days then you’re def not mainstream 💪 these tips are for the average TMB hiker. If you are trained, trekking poles are not needed but unfortunately we saw so many untrained hikers on the TMB. Hence the trekking pole tip 🙏

Did you know that human beings have evolved to not need boots or backpacks?😂

We don't wash it too many times. Only when necessary. But the jacket always kept me warm. Don't have the jacket anymore right now

Thank you! Yes we did this in 1 day as well. Take the earliest cable car up to Midi and the latest down at Le Brevent ❤ Enjoy Chamonix!

You're welcome ❤

Thank you so much!! Amazing to hear that you are going to hike this beautiful trail! How is hiking in Colombia? Greetings, this time from The Netherlands

❤❤❤

thank you so much!! We love to hear that! Good luck on the TMB! Let us know how it went ❤

It was a short hike (6km) to Lac Blanc with 1000m of evelation gain. It should take about 3hrs but it took us longer because we were shooting videos. The original route doesn't' t go to Lac Blanc but past the underlying lakes. The original route passes the ladders as well. There are a couple more ladders to reach Lac Blanc (variant). Hope this helps?

OK, thanks so much. I wish there were more lodging options further. Ideally, there would be something between La Flégère and Bellachat for a six hour (or so) hiking day… I think we will settle with La Flégère and have an easy 4 hour day. Thanks again

It’s a really beautiful section so enjoy the surroundings and take it slow 😍

Thank you! It really depends on a lot. Sleeping in huts is more expensive than camping. Stocking up on groceries is cheaper than having lunch at all the huts. But I think around 1000 euros per person. Hope this helps a bit? Hope you are going to hike the TMB ❤

@@Hikaholics thank you for answering

Thank you!! It is definitely a place for moderate hikers. You can shorten your day as well and there are so many options for day hikes and multiple day hikes

@@Hikaholics thanks so much. I was looking for a nice website to find the huts....do you know of a place online to figure it out to do the bookings for huts?

Thank you so much! Camping is only allowed at some huts and prices vary a lot. Best to check all the huts and their prices. Going to hike the TMB?

❤️

Wild camping along the TMB is a bit complicated. The trail passes through three countries and several local municipalities, each with their own specific rules and regulations. Generally speaking, wild camping may be allowed in France at high altitudes between sunset and sunrise, it may be permitted above 2,500 meters (from dusk until dawn) in Italy, and it is strictly forbidden in Switzerland. There are multiple designated camping spots along the trail

Hi Carel! Wat een mooie woorden, dankjewel. Blij dat onze video veel goede herinneringen oproept. We waren er is eind juni, dus juist aan het begin van het seizoen. Maar het was een extreem laag sneeuw jaar. De paden waren inderdaad wel erg druk, dat zal in ‘68 en ‘98 vast heel anders zijn geweest. Alsnog was het echt een prachtige tocht en wij hopen ‘m ook meerdere keren te mogen lopen

You're welcome! Take the Mont Blanc Unlimeted ticket. You will have access to the 3 acitivities and a lot more (all the cable cars)

@@Hikaholicsthanks

Great question! This is purely an inspirational and informative video about the trail itself. We will be creating a ‘how to plan the TMB’-video soon to cover that topic. We did book all the huts ourselves and used this website for planning www.montourdumontblanc.com/uk/ We had to do a few cancelations due to late booking. And that did cost us a bit. The biggest tip is to start booking early!
