HUMPBACK GLACIER
The highest ice fall of the Alps which is located in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc where you can take a chairlift.
Not to be confused with the "sea of ice"! The Bossons glacier is the highest ice fall in the Alps. It is the route taken by Jacques Balmat and Doctor Paccard in 1786 during the first ascent of Mont Blanc. Its tongue of ice descends as close as possible to the houses. Today, the hiking trail leads, in one hour, from the village of Bossons to the glacier chalet. This walk offers an imposing spectacle on the fall of the glacier and the seracs. To "visit" it, you can also take the chairlift of the Bossons glacier.
