Description
Circuit de la Mer de Glace - Chamonix Mont Blanc Circuit assez difficile aller retour 5h30; dernier 1/3 difficile beaucoup de roches et passages avec neige selon saison. Il y en avait encore fin mai 2009. Départ depuis la gare du train Montenvers à Chamonix. Suivre la trace gps, sinon il y a quelques pancartes indicatrices. Montée permanente sur 900m de dénivelé. Les premiers 600m de dénivelé s'effectuent sur de bons sentiers après mieux vaut être bien équipé. Vues splendides sur la vallée sur les 2/3, puis on longe la Mer de Glace sans la voir. Et évidemment la cerise sur le gâteau: enfin la vue sur la Mer de Glace. On peut continuer jusqu'en haut encore 100m de dénivelé et redescendre par un autre chemin mais je n'avais pas le temps de le chercher donc je suis redescendu par le même. Des bâtons de randonneurs pour s'appuyer dans la descente sont les bienvenus.
