Bonhomme Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

High mountain trail, if taken downhill, it presents several technical passages in the first part.
Enjoy the descent safely and always respect the people walking along the trail.
During the descent I came across a beautiful group of ibex.

Col de la Croix du Bonhomme Refuge

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Col de la Croix du Bonhomme is really a magnificent passage of the TMB, at the crossroads of Beaufortain, Val-Montjoie and the valley of the glaciers. The views are simply stunning!

Les Chapieux Village

Highlight • Settlement

Surrounded by the Beaufortain and Mont-Blanc massifs, les Chapieux is a pretty little hamlet, very picturesque. You can find goat cheese made on site at the village goat farm, as well as many local products. The village also has a free camping area and an inn. A very nice little stop before continuing your hike.
