About
Quick facts: Over 10,000 visitors climb to the summit every day to enjoy the stunning views of the Alps. The cable car rises quickly 2970 meters above sea level and is one of the highest in the world.
Highlights: A 360-degree panorama of the Mont-Blanc mountain is offered from the telescope bridge that stretches over a 3842-meter high precipice. Visitors can pass through a frozen ice tunnel on their own thread, giving the experience a magical and chilly feeling.
Insider tips
- Wear brightly colored warm clothes due to subzero temperatures at the summit.
- Capture views from the telescope bridge for a unique perspective and stunning photos.
- Avoid afternoon visits to avoid long waits.
- See the ice tunnel when it is less crowded in the morning.
