3/ Glacier walking

During this activity, there is another environment that you will discover, the ”Mer de Glace”, the last big glacier in the Alps 🧊

But before that, we have another activity waiting for you, the historical train of the “Montenvers “ that will make it possible for you to reach the beginning of this magical experience 🚃

The true legend since more than 100 years, this rack train (there are only 5 of them in France) will take you through the 5 kilometres that separates you from the centre of Chamonix and the site of the” Montenvers”. Take place, in one of the wagons, to live a mountain side experience.  Arriving, you will have nothing more than the beautiful panoramas facing you...

Once you are there, different incredible curiosities will come to you, as the Ice cave, that will make you want to come back and enjoy more of it! Today you have another program waiting for you....

Glacier walking

After watching the Mont Blanc majestic peaks, your guide will make you interested in the evolution of the “Mer de Glace”, and for its challenge and its challenges. Make place for the glacier hike! 😀

Your guide will show you how to use the crampons and how to walk with them on the ice, and you could try: how to do the ice climbing with ice axes, your first step as a mountaineer.

For the more experienced ones, we have sportier versions; you can find more details on our site.

On the land, in the air or on the ice....you will have enough reasons to come to Chamonix for a long week-end! But if you want to know more, you can find out about other activities on our website
