Téléphérique de l'Aiguille du Midi

The Téléphérique de l'Aiguille du Midi is a cable car in the French Alps that takes visitors from Chamonix to the summit of Aiguille du Midi, which stands at 3,842 meters (12,605 feet). Opened in 1955, it provides stunning panoramic views of Mont Blanc and the surrounding mountains. The journey consists of two sections: the first cable car ascends to the mid-point, while the second takes passengers directly to the summit. It's a popular attraction for tourists and climbers, offering access to breathtaking scenery and opportunities for mountain sports year-round.
