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!

Ascent to the Col de la Croix

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Climb with a capital S: you must be willing to tackle some stretches with the push bike, the slopes in some parts are prohibitive.
The view is magnificent, this stretch is really worth it.

Bivouac Spot by the Raja Stream

Highlight • Natural

Ideal place to spend the night, there is enough space to pitch several tents. As a bonus, the Raja stream is right next door to cool off after a good day of walking.
