What is the Montenvers train and Aiguille du Midi lift?
The Montenvers train is a traditional style train which twists up the mountain to visit the Glacier known as Mer du Glace (Sea of Ice) which is a spectacular sight. It allows the opportunity to go right inside the glacier by visiting the Ice Cave created every winter for this purpose. The Aiguille du Midi lift is the highest lift in Europe and offers a spectacular view across to Mont Blanc and over the whole Alps. It also allows access to the beginning point of the famous 24km off-piste run called The Valley Blanche which is only for those of a good standard of skiing/ boarding with a qualified guide. The above are covered on the Mont Blanc Unlimited pass, but not on the Chamonix Le Pass.
