All the year
As a privileged destination for different types of tourism, Courmayeur has a wide range of interesting offers and intriguing surprises during each month of the year, thus guaranteeing a touristic proposal with different facets that are perfectly intertwined with its uncontaminated alpine spirit.
KYWAY MONT BLANC
The dream came true: after four years of work and 105 million euros invested, the Sky Way Mont Blanc, the eighth wonder of the world, opens to the public. A futuristic cable made of glass and steel connects Courmayeur to the 3.492 meters-high Punta Helbronner, in the Mont Blanc massif. Entering the rotating cable and arriving on the panoramic terrace, where it feels like you can grab all of the western Alps, is a unique emotion. The new structure is equipped with every comfort and many attractions, a congress centre, the crystal museum and a botanical garden among the highest in the Alps. The structure was born in the '50s with the aim of connecting Courmayeur and Chamonix (France) with a real cable car in the middle of the glaciers that crosses the Alps between the French town, l'Aiguille du Midi (3.842 meters) and the Gros Rognon (3.541 meters).
