Glacier des Pélerins, Valley glacier in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, France

Glacier des Pélerins is a valley glacier in the Mont-Blanc massif stretching between the Aiguille du Plan and Aiguille du Midi. The ice mass displays typical glacial features including crevasses, seracs, and a surface of compacted snow and exposed ice.

The glacier is named after the hamlet of Les Pélerins, now a district of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, which lies below it. The sources record no chapel or pilgrim route behind the name; the hamlet itself is the origin. The ice descends between the Aiguille du Plan and the Aiguille du Midi.

Local mountaineering guides frequently incorporate this glacier into their educational programs about Alpine geology and glacial formations for visiting groups.

The terrain surrounding the glacier is steep and requires alpine experience along with proper equipment such as crampons and ropes. Access depends on snow cover and conditions, so local advice before visiting is recommended.

The glacier's name comes from the hamlet of Les Pélerins, now a district of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, and is spelled with an acute accent on the first e. The ice lies in a broad hollow between the Aiguille du Plan and the Aiguille du Midi, with grey rubble and debris covering much of the surface and white, crevassed tongues exposed in the middle and on the left.
