Altitude experiences...
Access to the Grande Motte glacier with the cable car and its roof cabin for a breathtaking view.
A fun visit to the heart of the Vanoise National Park
Take the funicular and cable car (3,456m) and then stop off on the Panoramic terrace, between sky and mountains, for a view of the surrounding peaks and mythical massifs: Mont Pourri, the crests of Grande Sassière, Grande Casse (highest point in the Vanoise: 3,856 metres) and the majestic Mont Blanc range.
A natural interlude
Here you are at the gateway to the Vanoise National Park, in a precious and protected national nature reserve. This exceptionally rich territory is a refuge for many Alpine species. Thanks to its protected status, hunting is banned here, allowing the ibex in particular to roam freely along its historic migration corridor.
Take time to observe, breathe and listen. In this majestic mineral setting, every detail tells the story of a thousand years of natural history. And if you pay close attention, you might even catch a glimpse of a bearded vulture soaring overhead or a few chamois on the ridges.
A 360° panorama… from the roof of the cable car
The two cable car cabins with roof terraces offer a unique 360-degree view of one of the most beautiful panoramas in the French Alps, with views of Mont Blanc, the Cime de Bellecôte and the Aiguille de la Grande Sassière.
Please note
This is a glacial zone. Even if access is easy, it is essential to respect the marked areas for your own safety. Don’t stray far from the authorised routes and make sure you’re properly equipped, even in summer (warm clothing, sunglasses, sun cream, etc.).
