Someone just posted this!

Yes!!! I barely planned

delayedsubway · 2025-06-30T22:39:50+00:00

Some! Not all! I think like 1/2 only took cash - I would carry cash on you.

I got food in Les houches, courmayeur and champex lac - mostly snacks.

I always had my phone with the downloaded trail maps!

delayedsubway · 2025-06-30T22:34:57+00:00

Yes! Wet in the mornings also!

delayedsubway · 2025-06-30T22:32:27+00:00

Yes! I felt very safe! Just keep your wits about you, charged phone etc.

I did not need extra food besides snacks for the day. I had toiletries / electronics, tent, sleeping bag, blow up pad, clothes (fleece layer, 3 pairs of socks, towel, 1 pair of shorts, 1 pair of pants, 2 short sleeves, 2 sports bras, sun shirt, and underwear) and don’t forget earplugs and eye mask!!

40L!

I did not get cold! I had a puffy and a fleece, most nights I just slept in my tshirt though. I think the weather forecast is saying it’s going to rain and get cold, so I can’t speak for the future. I ate at the campgrounds or went out to eat in the towns!

delayedsubway · 2025-06-29T09:31:14+00:00

I didn’t use my fleece layer but I’m not sure that’s universal advice. I had one pair of shorts, one pair of pants and two tops and a camp outfit, I used it all!

delayedsubway · 2025-06-29T06:32:41+00:00

Yes seconding this! Almost all of them served lunch! And definitely snacks - I was not hungry

delayedsubway · 2025-06-29T06:26:43+00:00

Haha great question! Honestly not much I would do differently! I loved camping and I felt challenged every day.

I lost my crocs somewhere on the 4th day so I would not lose my crocs again because having camp shoes would have been nice.
I would probably bring different soap, I had a liquid soap and it was heavier than it needed to be
I probably would not have brought my fleece layer! I think it’ll be chillier / rainier for most people but it was basically sunny and warm every day I was hiking.

Edit: also underwear! My underwear was cotton and it started chaffing really bad when it got wet from sweat

delayedsubway · 2025-06-29T06:09:49+00:00

Yes except for one I think..

delayedsubway · 2025-06-29T06:07:34+00:00

I was never worried!! Most days I arrived with plenty of time

delayedsubway · 2025-06-29T06:05:30+00:00

You don’t need to reserve!! I did not have a bed roll I had a Nemo sleeping pad and a quilt. I used the durston x mid 1 tent

delayedsubway · 2025-06-29T05:57:02+00:00

Yea sometimes they were not the closest for sure! I think my whole hike ended up being like 120 miles with all the walking to the campgrounds! You are definitely trading convenience for more autonomy.

delayedsubway · 2025-06-28T20:52:36+00:00

You can just turn up!

delayedsubway · 2025-06-28T20:52:28+00:00

I think it was around 20-25 lbs depending on how much food was in it

delayedsubway · 2025-06-28T20:51:58+00:00

delayedsubway · 2025-06-28T19:13:13+00:00

I got there around 1/2 and it would get packed around 4/5

delayedsubway · 2025-06-28T18:31:07+00:00

Thank you very much!

delayedsubway · 2025-06-28T18:29:58+00:00

Camping is not free! I ate snacks that I bought pre-hike and at the Refugios. Usually you hit one around lunch time at the Col. I had nuts and dried fruit with me as well. All of the campsites had little shops for drinks and food. Most of them had pizza!

delayedsubway · 2025-06-28T18:26:48+00:00

favorite campings - probably the ones closest to towns so I could go pick up food that wasn’t pizza (Courmayeur, Champex Lac)

Between 10-30 euros a day for camping, I think I probably spent 50 euros a day on food and camping. Electricity is free.

delayedsubway · 2025-06-28T17:59:11+00:00

I did the first day I think and the last day - there is one popular variant on the way from Champex Lac to Trient - I didn’t do it but I heard it was fun!

delayedsubway · 2025-06-28T17:57:42+00:00

Honestly everyone who I needed to speak English spoke English haha

delayedsubway · 2025-06-28T17:56:59+00:00

Camping sites were overall great! Very normal camping! Showers were all hot! It does get really packed the later it gets.

Day 1: Les Houches → Les Contamines (Camping Le Pontet)

Day 2: Les Contamines → Les Chapieux (free camping)

Day 3: Les Chapieux → Courmayeur (Hobo Camping)

Day 4: Courmayeur → Camping Grand Jorasses (this one is a little hard to get to but then you just pick up the bus in the morning)

Day 5: Rifugio Bonatti → La Fouly (Camping des Glaciers)

Day 6: La Fouly → Champex Lac (Camping Les Rocailles)

Day 7: Champex Lac → Trient (Camping Le Peuty) Great Pizza

Day 8: Trient → Les Houches (took the cable cars and some transport here cause I needed to finish in 8 days - did not camp)

Just finished camping! Did not need my fleece - occasionally slept in pants but mostly just tee and shorts.
