Pic de l'Aiguille, Mountain summit in Western Alps, France

The Pic de l'Aiguille reaches an elevation of 3,842 meters in the Mont Blanc massif, offering direct views of surrounding glaciers and peaks.

The first recorded ascent of Pic de l'Aiguille took place in 1818, when Antoni Malczewski and J.M. Balmat, accompanied by five guides, reached the summit.

The summit represents a central point for mountaineering activities, connecting various climbing routes and serving as a training ground for Alpine expeditions.

The cable car system from Chamonix transports visitors to the summit station in 20 minutes, covering a vertical distance of 2,800 meters.

The summit features a glass-floor observation platform suspended at 3,842 meters, allowing visitors to experience a vertical view of the valley below.
