TMB Day 3
1. Today's hike will be relatively shorter than the other days
2. After getting off the shuttle, make your way to Mottets then hike up to Col de la Seigne. This is the border between France and Italy!!
3. Continue onto Refuge Elizabeth - can stop by here for lunch before continuing to La Visaille to catch bus to Courmayeur. (If you were leaving Rifugio Elisabetta, it’s an easy stroll along the straight Roman road (40-50 mins) until you hit a bridge at Lac Combal (you won’t see the Lac, it’s slightly higher on the opposite side, but you will see the lovely A frame Cabane du Combal refuge across the way). From the bridge it’s a half an hour walk down the road, then picking up a track for 10 minutes to arrive in the village of La Visaille.)
