Mont Blanc

Mont Blanc is the name of both the mountain group and the highest peak in the massif. Located in the Western Alps on the border of France and Italy, the area lures tourists with ski fields, glaciers, cable-car rides, hiking trails, and ice caves. Shown here is the view from the valley, with the town of Sallanches partly visible.
