Mont Blanc (Monte Bianco) is the highest mountain in the Alps and Western Europe, rising 4808.7 m (15777 ft) above sea level. It is the second-highest and second-most prominent mountain in Europe, after Mount Elbrus, and it is the eleventh most prominent mountain summit in the world. The mountain stands between the regions of Aosta Valley, Italy and Savoie and Haute-Savoie, France.
The three towns and their communes which surround Mont Blanc are Courmayeur in Aosta Valley, Italy; and Saint-Gervais-les-Bains and Chamonix in Haute-Savoie, France.
Skyway Monte Bianco is a cable car in the Alps, linking the Italian town of Courmayeur with Pointe Helbronner on the southern side of the Mont Blanc massif. Taking over three years to construct, it opened in 2015 at a cost of 110 million euros, and is considered to be the world’s most expensive cable car installation.
The Vallée Blanche Cable Car (Funivia dei Ghiacciai-Télécabine Panoramicò Mont-Blanc) is a passager cable car linkino a Mountain Peak above Courmayeur(Italy) to a peak above Chamonix (France) by passing over the Mont Blanc massif, in the Alps. The engineering was developed by Vittorio Zignoli of Polytechnic University of Turin. After a construction period of four years, it began service in 1958.
The cable car connects the peaks of Aiguille du Midi (3778 m - 12,395 ft) and Pointe Helbronner, over a distance of some 5 km (3.1 mi). This tourist attraction spans the valleys between the two peaks, high above the Mont Blanc Tunnel, which carries automotive passenger and freight traffic under the two peaks.
