Riding the Tramway du Mont-Blanc.
Riding the Tramway du Mont-Blanc.

Most people either drive, ride a bus, or take some sort of shuttle to the resort to go skiing, but the Mont-Blanc area has its own stunning way to get to the mountain. In the summer, the Tramway du Mont-Blanc takes riders from Saint-Gervais-les-Bains up to the Nid d’Aigle, taking them through a variety of stunning alpines landscapes.

Of course it’s the winter we care about, and the tramway will take skiers and snowboarders from Saint-Gervais-les-Bains to the Plateau de Bellevue at 1800 meters and the Les Houches ski area. Chamonix Ski Bum took a ride on the tramway and shared his experience.

A one-way ticket for an adult on the tramway costs 22.20 €, or just about $22.86 USD. Round trip tickets go for 34 €, while kids round trip passes can be purchased for 28.90 €. Certainly not a bad price for such a stunning ride.
