The ascent starts either with a climb from the bottom of the Valle Blanche all the way up just beneath the Mont Blanc duTacul, or you take the train from Chamonix to Montenvers and start from here or you take the cable car up to l’Aiguille du Midi and ski + climb in many possible routes.
The descent starts between the Aiguilles du Diable and the Mont Blanc du Tacul, a beautiful couloir and then down through the Valle Blanche to Chamonix.
