Experience a breathtaking journey on Monte Bianco using Skyway’s state-of-the-art cable car that takes you from Courmayeur to Punta Helbronner station at an elevation of 3,500m inside a heated, rotating cabin. The journey is split into two sections: the initial phase takes you to the Pavillon du Mont Frety at 2,000m for lunch, while the final phase takes you to the summit at Punta Helbronner where there are various observation decks presenting astounding views of Dente del Gigante, Cresta di Rochefort and the magnificent glaciers on the mountain.

Magic - We decided to go up despite the bad day which didn't allow us to see the view. We made the right decision: the white that enveloped everything, the snow that fell heavily gave a fairytale atmosphere. The organization is excellent. We will return on a clearer winter day and in summer to admire the botanical garden and to arrive on the French side.

An earthly paradise❤️ - Absolutely one of the most beautiful experiences of my life... The grandeur and vastness of the surrounding environment, the perfect organisation, the extreme courtesy and professionalism of all the staff, starting from Courmayeur, passing through Pavillon, up to Punta Hellbronner.. The excellent food, the fabulous museum, the spotlessly clean environment, the breathtaking view... A true paradise... An experience to absolutely live.. I will return without a doubt and I highly recommend it.

Very nice - All the staff, both at the funicular and in the restaurant, were very friendly and helpful. Very updated and modern location, we were a bit unlucky with the view because it was snowing and we couldn't see anything, but obviously it's not the structure's fault

Beautiful experience - An experience definitely worth doing when you are in the area, the view is beautiful both from the highest point and from the intermediate station and it is also worth the climb itself given that the cabin turns 360° during the ascent and descent and you can admire the view of the valley.
The thing that isn't written anywhere is that you can only stay in the upper station for an hour and a half.

Unique and exciting experience - We parked the car in Pré-Saint-Didier at a cost of €.3/day and then reached the Skyway. The last stretch to reach Punta Helbronner is obviously the one that allows you to experience many emotions while getting lost in the wonders of nature. The Skyway is technologically advanced, rotating 360 degrees during the journey with a truly beautiful structure that allows you to enjoy unique views. The cost is high but it is worth it.

Wonder - One of the wonders of this planet is located in Courmayeur. Once you reach Punta Helbronner 3462 m you will find the Mont Blanc massif. A wonderful vision of our mountains. If you are a good skier in adequate time you could reach France on skis by descending into the Mer de Glace arriving in Chamonix. I've done it several times and it's a unique experience. I repeat one of the most beautiful experiences in the world. Absolutely worth seeing at least.

Stunning scenery - great staff - On a clear day, this is an extraordinary trip. Everything was well organised - from the free bus that takes you to the cable car from Courmayeur bus station, to the smooth cable car journey and the awaiting scenery. The views are spectacular, and even four seasoned mountain skiiers were awestruck.
The service of the staff was also excellent. We hadn't realised that our Courmayeur 6-day lift pass gave us a free Skyway trip - so we booked in advance at €55/per person. As we went through the gates, showing our tickets, our lift passes in our jackets bleeped us through. The official heard - and whisked us away to process a refund for the advance tickets we had purchased. A little act of honesty and kindness that added to the whole experience.

FABULOUS FACILITY VERY WELL MANAGED. - A system of maximum efficiency.
A spectacular view, given the rotation of the cabin.
Arriving in 2 steps at the highest point (3500 m) and seeing the Mont Blanc massif in front of you was a unique experience.
