This is Day 3 from Chamonix to Vallouise. Not all passes are on the video, the biggest part is from the Col du Galibier as this was the best of all. Col de I’Iseran was not open that day so I had to get arround.

Day 3 Lac de Roseleand  Col du Mont Cenis

My 3rd day ended at in Vallouise south of Briancon where I forgot to make some Pictures of the Camping place if choosen. I arrived quite late and couldn´t check in anymore. Hungry and tired I found a pizza truck with a nice host. He gave me advice for my tour through France and tips what to see. Thank you Vincent! Although I could not pass Col d I’Iseran as it was still closed I left it in the TomTom tour for you.

A little visitor in front of my tent. I wonder to whom it belonged before it escaped and went wild. Nevertheless it looked quite healthy alone in the camping forest.

You could see Mont Blanc from there.

Nothing Nice To Show

Today my trip ended in Chamonix. On that way there was nothing really worth to picture. The temprature today was about 30C and most of the streets had speed limit of 40 to 60km/h so no chance to cool down.The camping place I found is quite nice with direct view to Mont Blanc.

Home sweet home. This is where my tour endend that day at camping Augenstern somewhere on the way to Brig. Just before I left this morning I’ve been shown a video by one of the guest how high the snow was last winter. You couldn’t 👀 the caravans anymore. Weather extremes wherever go. All camping locations I selected via ADAC Campingführer. The app is not for free and only in German langauge available.

In the topmost lake of Grimsel water is still frozen. Looks like I ended up at the arctic see but it’s just a few kilometers from my hometown where we had around 30C today.
