Why Aiguille du Midi matters
A cable car lifts you from the valley to the top of the Aiguille du Midi, a granite spire. From a platform you look across glaciers and the summit of Mont Blanc. Bring warm clothes, because the temperature drops sharply.
Talking points
- The cable car climbs almost 2,800 metres.
- A glass box sticks out over the void.
- It's cold, so dress for winter.
