Balcon du Mont-Blanc
A traverse from Finhaut through La Léchère up to the Fenestral pass and along the Vieux Emosson balcony, with Mont Blanc face-on the whole way.
Balcon du Mont-Blanc
One of the great Mont Blanc balconies without the crowds of the French side. The path stays high on grassy shoulders, then contours to the Émosson dam. Bring water: the crest side is sun-baked and the fountains only start once you drop to La Léchère.
