Map and real-time info


France’s highest mountain rack railway

Starting from Le Fayet or Saint-Gervais, the Mont Blanc tramway reaches Bellevue (at 1,800m) through pastures and forests, and enables you to gradually reach the Nid d'Aigle (2,372m) under the Aiguille du Goûter peak, at the bottom of the Bionnassay glacier. It is also first stage for mountaineers who start out on the ascension of Mont Blanc.

The trip takes 50 minutes to Bellevue and 75 minutes to the Nid d'Aigle.

Starting from the Col de Voza pass, Bellevue and the Nid d'Aigle, there are hill-walking paths, including the path to the Bionnassay glacier or the Tête de Charme.



From Bellevue, mountain-biking enthusiasts can go down to Les Houches village, either via the 4x4 trail or via "the" Les Houches downhill slope, which is forbidden to pedestrians and reserved for mountain-bikers. Bikes are allowed on the tramway at certain times: ask for information.

Where to eat: There are two restaurants on the way, one at the Col de Voza pass and one at Bellevue: at the top, the Nid d'Aigle mountain hut also proposes a gourmet break.
