Thanks to your mountain guide, you'll learn to recognize the iconic peaks of the Alps: the Grandes Jorasses, the Dent du Géant, and even the Matterhorn, among many others! You'll also hear tales of the greatest explorers who have conquered and written the history of the Alps and mountaineering, as in 1786, marked by the first ascent of Mont Blanc by two Chamoniards!

About Chamonix
Chamonix is a mountaineering town in the French Alps at the foot of Mont Blanc, with glaciers, high cable cars and a long history of winter sport.
Chamonix sits in a narrow valley directly beneath Mont Blanc, at about 4,800 metres the highest summit in the Alps. Its first ascent in 1786 by Jacques Balmat and Michel-Gabriel Paccard made the town the birthplace of mountaineering, and the first Winter Olympics followed in 1924. A statue in the square shows Balmat pointing towards the summit beside the scientist de Saussure.
