Tacul Glacier, Alpine glacier in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, France.

The Tacul Glacier stretches across the northern slopes of Mont Blanc massif, featuring deep crevasses and seracs at an elevation of 4,248 meters.

Early alpinists of the late 18th century conducted extensive mapping of the Tacul Glacier area, establishing foundations for modern mountaineering techniques.

The glacier stands as a central element in the development of winter sports and mountaineering traditions within the Chamonix-Mont-Blanc community.

Visitors reach the glacier through a network of cable cars and marked trails from Chamonix, with guide services available for safe exploration.

The glacier functions as a tributary to the Mer de Glace, creating a complex system of ice formations that shape the mountain landscape.
