Description
Discover the captivating world of Glacier 3000 with this ticket. You'll enjoy a ride on the cable car up to nearly 3000 m above sea level, along with many experiences in the high alpine glacier environment.
At Col du Pillon, you board the cable car and travel in two stages via the middle station Cabane up to the mountain station Scex Rouge. The whole journey takes about 15 minutes.
Right at the mountain station, the Ice Express chairlift starts, carrying you over the snow-white glacier plain to the starting point of the Glacier Walk. From there, you can take a leisurely stroll on a marked, groomed path over the glacier’s ice masses.
Behind the Scex Rouge mountain station is the Peak Walk by Tissot, a suspension bridge connecting two peaks. The bridge is about 100 m long and offers spectacular views downwards and panoramic sights of the surrounding 4000-metre peaks.
The fun park invites kids and families to try out their first gliding experiences in the snow—perfect for short runs and playful snowy fun. You can combine all activities included in your ticket according to your own schedule.
You can start your return trip whenever suits you best. The cable car will comfortably bring you back down to the valley station at Col du Pillon.
