Mre de Glace Review

This glacier is about 7 kilometers long, you can participate in halfway or full hiking, go to the mountain is really beautiful, the glacier is also very majestic, there are also facilities for hikers along the way.

The sea of ice in Chamonix is the most spectacular glacier in the Alps, like a white dragon winding through the mountain. There are also ice caves artificially carved in thousands of years of ice, and the lighting rendering is very beautiful.

La mer de Glace in Chamonix, France, is the second longest mountain in the Alps, with a total length of 14 kilometers. It seems that the glacier has been moving slowly. From Montenvers in Chamonix, take the small train to and from the town of Chamonix. The round-trip 31.5 euros, the small train was closed in October, and now you can see it at the end of January. The weather is very bad, the rain is snowing, the first train departs at 10 o'clock, every hour, and it starts at half o'clock. It takes about 20 minutes to reach the platform to watch the glacier. The long ice blue glacier is covered with snow, and only a little bit can be seen. And the ice cave below is also closed, unfortunately, can only look at the crystal-producing mine, it is estimated that the next summer is the best time.

There is a 10,000-year-old glacier in the peak of Chamonix, called the MerdeGlace Ice Sea, the second largest glacier in the Alps. It is 14 kilometers long, the widest is 1800 meters, and the thickest is 400 meters. It feels like a stretch when you arrive near the viewing. It is spectacular. The snow-white reflection is particularly dazzling in the sun and cannot be looked directly at for long periods. It can be reached by train or cable car at Montenvers Railway Station.

Well worth a visit, a fun place.

On the way back up the mountain, we looked at the valley again and found many different things: the section of the hillside over there is blue, is it the so-called end of the ice tongue? Is the circle of black surrounded by the rocky rocks below the melting ice lake? The nameplate of the year that is striking on the roadside is actually a sign line of glaciers in different eras? The small black spots in the ice sea ahead are divided and merged, as if they are moving. I looked closely and vaguely saw a team of climbers assisting each other and struggling upward. Although they were very small compared with the mountains, and they had been a short distance away for a long time, their tenacity, fearlessness and courage still deeply moved me, and made me sure that they would be able to climb the peaks by their own strength.
