CHAMONIX GLACIER WALK
Discover the glacier walk - Mer de Glace
Chamonix glacier walk
In many ways, Chamonix Mont-Blanc is known as the world capital of mountaineering.
This reputation, deserved by an exceptional environment and a history without comparison, leaves a kind of elitism. However, although the Mont-Blanc massif is full of summits and climbing routes, each one more technical than the other, it is also possible for neophytes to discover the world of the high mountains, to penetrate this unique and extraordinary environment.
So, we’d like to offer you an introduction to mountaineering: to take your first steps in the high mountains!
