La Mythique Mer De Glace
3 hours
From Chamonix centre, you can choose to catch a ride in one of the cute, red Glacier trains and go to Montenvers, to wonder the breathtaking view of the world famous Mere de Glace glacier! Mer de Glace is a compound valley glacier, gaining ice from snowfields that cover the heights directly north of Mont Blanc at an altitude of around 4,000 metres. It flows for a total distance of 12 kilometres, covering an area of 32 square kilometres. The iconic red Montenvers train runs on a rack and pinion (or cog) railway just over 5 kilometres in length (3.2 miles) and snakes its way up from Chamonix to the top station at 1,913 metres. The train was first put into use in 1908 when the line stopped at Caillet, and then fully opened all the way to the top in 1909.
