Grotte de Glace

Reviewed By 830azimd

Excellent views of the mountains, great photo opportunities, fun cable car / gondola ride down to the steps and very well made ice cave. Something to be wary of is that the cable car / gondola only takes you so far down. Thereafter you have to climb down several hundred steps (I think approximately 500) and then climb back up the steps after viewing the ice cave. Would nevertheless recommend this as a must do / see in Chamonix.

Glacier cave

Reviewed By 548PaulH - Bury St. Edmunds, United Kingdom

After a full mornings skiing, we took the lifts up to the top and walk a short way down to the entrance to the cave. Excellent lighting effects provided a marvelous ambiance in the ice cave. Carvings are fantastic.
