Chamonix town centre
For those with a good head for heights, why not leave the centre of the town and take a cable car ride up to one of surrounding peaks? The highest and most famous of these is the Téléphérique de l’Aiguille du Midi built in 1955. At 3842m, the top station is the highest cable car station in the Alps. The peak of l’Aiguille du Midi can just be seen in the picture opposite, rising high above the valley to the south. Other cable cars in the area journey up the Brévent, le Tour Col de Balme, La Flégère and Les Grands Montets.
