    At the end of the large Balcon Nord is the Montenvers - Mer de Glace station. The station offers a magnificent view of the glacial tongue which flows into the valley.

        Unique experience.
        Departure by train from Chamonix to Montenvers station at 1913m.
        Descent by footpath then the 580 steps to the cave.
        To get to the glacier, crampons and glacier safety equipment recommended.
