Do you know glacier hiking?

No, it does not correspond to a hike where you eat ice creams. Well, you can, but at the end, as a reward !

Evolution 2 Chamonix makes you discover the majestic summits of Chamonix Mont-Blanc during a hike surrounding by millennium glaciers.

Practically speaking, equipped by spikes and high mountain shoes, you will hike on the glacier, bypass crevices in the middle of a breathtaking landscape : the heart of the Mont-Blanc massif.

Should we keep going ?

Good news for you, to do glacier hiking, you do not need any previous spike hiking experience, our guides adapt the hike regarding your experiences and your physical condition.

Evolution 2 Chamonix proposes you two glacier hikes : The Mer de Glace or The Vallée Blanche.

To reach the Mer Glace, you will first take the famous red train of the Montenvers  (for the moment it does not require any effort). The hike is at 1 800 m of altitude. To do this hike, we ask to our clients to be able to hike for approximatively 4 to 5 hours with a low drop (that’s not a big deal). The Mer de Glace hiking is also the perfect place to learn, to improve spiking technic and to be initiated to ice climbing !

The starting point of the Vallée Blanche is located at the top of the Aiguille Du Midi at 3 842 m of altitude. In this itinerary, you will do high altitude hike ! To do the Vallée Blanche we ask to our clients to be endurant to fully enjoy the breathtaking view.
