For many of, the trail is where we find peace and solitude, even during the best of times. It’s where we go to escape the challenges of daily life and to disconnect from the world for a little while. In the case of this hiker, that means setting out on a 120 mile (193 km) trek along the Tour du Mont Blanc loop, passing through France, Italy, and Switzerland while en route. It took him six days to complete that journey, rarely encountering anyone else along the way. As you’ll see in the video, it was a walk well worth taking, with some of the most stunning scenery that Europe has to offer.
