Skyway Monte Bianco Cable Car Ticket

The GetYourGuide return ticket costs €59 per adult for the ride from Courmayeur to Punta Helbronner and back. It also covers the Hangar 2173 museum, the Paul Helbronner exhibition and the Pavillon sun terrace. Food and the Mont Blanc Infinity Room are paid separately on the spot. We quote only the GetYourGuide price, because we could not verify the official 2026 fares from more than one source. Check the price for your date in the live calendar.

The Skyway goes to Punta Helbronner at 3,466 m, starting from Pontal d'Entrèves at about 1,300 m, with a middle station at Pavillon, 2,173 m. That is 376 m lower than the Aiguille du Midi summit at 3,842 m on the French side. Both give close views of the Mont Blanc massif; the Aiguille du Midi is simply higher. If height is your priority, the cable car and train day goes to 3,842 m from Geneva.

The ride takes about 4 and 7 minutes in its two sections, so roughly 11 minutes from the valley to Punta Helbronner. The cabins carry up to 80 people and make a full 360° rotation on the way up, which one reviewer singles out. Your ticket is valid for 1 day, so most of the time goes on the terraces, museum and lunch rather than the ride. Pick a clear-weather day in the live calendar.

Children aged 7 and younger get a free ticket when traveling with an adult paying full fare; without that pairing, they get a 75% discount. Their tickets must be paid for and collected directly on site, not through GetYourGuide. Book the adult tickets online, then collect the child tickets at the station. For a family day from Geneva instead, the Mont Blanc tour from Geneva hub compares the coach trips.

Dates on GetYourGuide ran only to 1 Nov 2026 when we checked on 29 Sep 2026, and no later dates were on sale then. That does not prove a closure, but it means you cannot book a November or winter date in advance yet. Check again closer to your trip, and keep a backup. In December, the Aiguille du Midi on the French side is also closed until 19 Dec 2026, so plan with the best time for a Mont Blanc tour.

Take the Arriva bus from Chamonix to Courmayeur through the Mont Blanc Tunnel, from €15 one way, with reservation mandatory; the timetable runs 1 Sep to 13 Dec 2026. At the valley station, follow the Skyway Monte Bianco sign. The ticket has no transport, so time the return bus before you ride up. If you'd rather stay in France, the cable car and train day covers the Aiguille du Midi with transport from Geneva.

Yes, if you are already near Courmayeur: €59 per adult for 3,466 m is the lowest price to high altitude among the Mont Blanc products on GetYourGuide. Reviewers rate the ride 4.9 for transportation and 4.8 overall from 202 reviews. It is weaker value from Geneva, where getting to Italy adds time and cost. In that case, compare the Geneva day trips in the Aiguille du Midi vs Skyway Monte Bianco comparison.

Food and drinks at the restaurants and access to the Mont Blanc Infinity Room at Pavillon are not included; the Infinity Room is paid on the spot. There is also no guide and no transport to the valley station. Everything else at the top stations listed by the operator is covered: the Hangar 2173 museum, the Paul Helbronner exhibition and the Pavillon sun terrace. For lunch booked in advance, the Skyway with alpine lunch includes it.
