Grotte de Glace

Step directly inside the glacier at this tunnel of ice, reshaped every year for the past half-century. To reach it, you'll need to get to Montenvers station (1913m), before jumping onto a cable car and then descending nearly 600 steps.

It's closed for three weeks in October. The location of the ice cave will likely change in the future due to the rapidly melting glacier.
