    This is a beautiful pass through the scree at an altitude of 2,368 meters. From here, you overlook the Chamonix and Diosaz valleys. The landscape is mineral and the views spectacular.

      A great hill and digging there is even better. On the other side, a dangerous ladder and climb it.

        The Brévent is a great panoramic mountain on the glaciated north flank of Mont Blanc. The view of the opposite Aiguilles de Chamonix, from the Aiguille du Midi to the Aiguille des Grands Charmoz, is extraordinary and is enhanced by the huge glaciers that flow down from Mont Blanc. The summit of the Brévent is accessible by a cable car, we climbed it on a hot July day in an easy hike from the middle station of Planpraz.
