Our new “train d’Antan” experience

Every Thursday evening in July and August, enjoy an exceptional evening aboard a historic Montenvers train dating from 1909.

Let yourself be transported by the retro atmosphere of this train of yesteryear, as it majestically winds its way up to the grandiose Mer de Glace.
At the top, extend the experience with a refined dinner at the Refuge du Montenvers, in a warm and authentic atmosphere.

And to crown this unique escapade, let the magic happen on the return journey at night aboard the vintage oar – a suspended, unforgettable moment.

Sold as a package, the offer includes the return trip on the vintage train and dinner at the refuge: on sale on our website from mid-June.
