From the top of Punta Helbronner, accessible by cable car from Courmayeur, begins a spectacular traverse of the Mt. Blanc massive in the heart of the Alps. There are no particular technical difficulties but one must be careful to avoid the numerous cerracs. Participants will be able to admire not only the spectacular scenery but expect rock climbers as they attempt nearby routes of considerable technical difficulties. Once the Aig. du Midi, is reached by climbing a spectacular and exposed, but easy crest, all members of the party return to the Italian side of Courmayeur by taking the spectacular cable car that returns to Punta Helbronner from the Aig. du Midi.
