This first stage, rather short, allows us to discover the Aiguille du Midi before our departure. This summit which culminates at 3848m is easily accessible by cable car from Chamonix. After this unique experience, it is surrounded by snowy summits that we take the direction of the Swiss border and the Col de la Forclaz. The descent to the Rhone valley and the city of Martigny offers a unique view of the most famous wine region of Switzerland.
The demanding ascent of the Col de Champex (1490m) through the forest will be the last of the day. Nestled between the peaks, in the heart of the Valaisan Alps, the village of Champex-Lac welcomes us for the night.

After a few kilometers of descents, the Grand Saint Bernard pass (2473m), the 3rd highest road pass in Switzerland, makes its appearance. Initially named the Col du Mont-Joux, it was named Saint-Bernard in the XIth century in homage to Bernard de Menthon, a man of the church and founder of the Hospice du Grand Saint-Bernard, which provides a welcome and rescue service for travelers who are victims of robbery. After cutting the border between Switzerland and Italy, the road continues in the direction of Aosta and then Courmayeur. We spend the night in this city nestled at the foot of the Mont Blanc.
