About

The Brevent cable car is a spectacular alpine attraction that lifts visitors from Chamonix to the 2525‑metre summit of Brévent, where a 360° panorama of the Mont‑Blanc massif awaits. A short gondola ride to Planpraz precedes the cable car, giving effortless access to hiking trails, ski slopes, and the charming terrace restaurant Le Panoramique. Families can purchase a Family Pack that allows riders of all ages to enjoy the ride together, while skiers and outdoor adventurers relish the easy line to the Aiguille des Houches and the surrounding alpine slopes. The cable car operates daily from late autumn through early spring with a 1h30min round‑trip journey, providing breathtaking views and a memorable Alpine experience. With panoramic terraces, a dedicated restaurant, and a family‑friendly ticketing system, the Brevent cable car is ideal for travelers seeking a combination of natural beauty, relaxed leisure, and convenient access to winter and summer activities. Whether you're eyeing a ski season or a peaceful summer walk, the cable car offers an unforgettable escape into the heart of the French Alps.
