Mont-Blanc Aiguille du midi Chamonix Taxi Annecy

Mont-Blanc

Chamonix Mont-Blanc, the internationally famous Capital of Skiing and Mountaineering, is also, and above all, a multi-faceted ski resort.

From Chamonix, take the cable car over the forest to reach the Plan de l’Aiguille (2317 m). Admire the Glacier des Bossons, the Mont-Blanc, the Aiguille Verte, the Drus and the Aiguilles de Chamonix. Then take a second cable-car which will take you up to an altitude of 3777m in just 10 minutes, above the glaciers. Take the top lift and you will reach the peak at 3842m! Welcome to the Aiguille du Midi!

Perched at 3842 meters this rocky peak is a doorway to the high mountains with 360 degree views of all the surrounding mountains from the terraces.

Ensure you have warm clothing and good shoes, as it gets cold very quickly at 3842 m. altitude Don’t forget your sunglasses, sun screen and… camera for a memorable photo shot!

My favorite time to go there is spring, as you can admire the fresh snow on a nice day!

See my post about the scenic drive from Annecy, and do not hesitate to contact me if you wish me to drive you from Chamonix to Annecy. https://www.taxi-massingy.com/en/scenic-route-from-annecy-to-chamonix/

I will recommend you to go there early in the morning to enjoy most of the day, you can also get a multi pass to do Montenvers train and Mer de Glace.

Most people will speak English (as plenty over there) and you can also find lunch or breakfast offers for English or English products in supermarkets but do not forget the cheese fondue!

In June 2019, I took some lovely customers to Chamonix-Mont Blanc and Aiguille du Midi.

Enjoy the snowy photos!

While there, you could also do a family walk in Merlet Park in les Houches, below Chamonix. It is a beautiful animal park with amazing view on Mont Blanc.
