My helicopter flight over Mont Blanc

Mont Blanc , the tallest mountain in Europe, culminating over 4800 meters . Who has never dreamed of being able to admire it from the sky?
For those who, like me, have been tempted by adventure, and for the undecided, a little throwback to a baptism of the air in a helicopter in a magnificent setting .

Choice of circuit and my flight program

I was able to choose from two circuits to choose from, 30 min flight or 50 min to discover all the beauty of this exceptional setting in a helicopter accommodating 6 passengers in addition to the pilot.
On the program for this beautiful day, we were able to fly over the following places thanks to our dear pilot:

  • Megève Valley
  • the Aiguille and the Dôme du Goûter
  • the Mont Blanc so majestic (obviously!)
  • the Col du Midi
  • Aiguille du Midi
  • Géant and Leschaux glaciers
  • The Grandes Jorasses
  • Aiguille de Chamonix
  • Aiguilles des Drus and Aiguille Verte
  • Argentière Glacier
  • and finally the Mer de Glace.

I was also able to see 2 brave hikers going to a refuge located right in the middle of these mountains.

My advice on this unique experience

For those who want to discover more , you can choose the 50 min flight to see places such as Val Ferret, Col de la Forclaze, Mont Dolent, and many more. Be careful though, you won't want to get off the device !

For me, it was myfirst flight and I have very fond memories of it . Located to the right of the pilot (first to arrive… the best placed!), I had an overview of the landscape that passed before my eyes

The pilot even went so far as to extend the flight time in order to allow us to see in particular the Barrage de la Girotte and the Dent du Géant, not included in our initial route. A very welcome little attention, which made me want to continue this journey .

Theft on video
