Mont Blanc MultiPass
What is the Mont Blanc MultiPass?
The Mont Blanc MultiPass is a single ticket that replaces the need to purchase separate tickets for each lift or excursion site. With a single pass, it grants access to several high-altitude areas and iconic sites for a duration chosen by the visitor. The pass is customizable: from 1 to 9 consecutive days, or as a non-consecutive days option to alternate between days at high altitude and rest days in the valley.
When booked online at least three days in advance, it generally offers a better rate than purchasing at the ticket office during the summer season. In winter, check out the Evasion Mont Blanc pass for skiing!
Summer or Winter Pass: Two Very Distinct Pass Models
The MultiPass is available exclusively during the summer: it is on sale only from mid-June through the end of September, depending on the sites’ operating schedules each season. There is no winter equivalent, so it does not allow you to ski. If you’re looking for a ski pass for the winter season in Megève, the situation is different: the ski area is no longer accessible via the MultiPass but via the Evasion Mont-Blanc pass, which provides unlimited access to the slopes of Megève, Saint-Gervais, Combloux, Les Contamines, Saint-Nicolas-de-Véroce, La Giettaz, and Hauteluce.

Which sites and areas are included in the Mont Blanc MultiPass?
The pass covers four major tourist sites and several ski areas in the valley. Since these sites and ski areas may be closed at times, it’s best to check before you go. Here is the list of accessible sites:
- – Aiguille du Midi (Europe’s highest cable car, excluding the Panoramic Mont-Blanc extension to Italy)
- – Montenvers – Mer de Glace, with its rack-and-pinion train and ice cave
- – Mont-Blanc Tramway to the Nid d’Aigle
- – Skyway Monte Bianco, on the Italian side
- – Ski areas of Brévent-Flégère, Balme–Le Tour–Vallorcine, and Les Houches–Saint-Gervais
- – Megève, Saint-Gervais, and Les Contamines, with a 2-day pass or longer
The pass also includes additional perks: free local transportation (buses and the Mont-Blanc Express regional train), a 4D immersive movie experience at the Aiguille du Midi, and discounts on the Chamonix tourist train.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Mont Blanc MultiPass?
The Mont Blanc MultiPass is a summer pass that provides access, for a selected period, to the ski lifts and major tourist attractions, including the Aiguille du Midi, the Mer de Glace, and the Mont Blanc Tramway.
How much does a Mont Blanc MultiPass ski pass cost in Megève?
Prices follow the same rate schedule as in the rest of the valley, averaging around €26.50 per day for advance online purchases, with a sliding scale based on the number of days. Since Megève is only included starting with the 2-day pass, a single-day pass does not grant access to the ski area.
Does the MultiPass include access to the Aiguille du Midi?
Yes, the round-trip cable car ride to the Aiguille du Midi is one of the attractions included in the MultiPass. Only the Panoramic Mont-Blanc extension, which connects the Aiguille du Midi to Pointe Helbronner in Italy, is still an additional cost and can only be purchased on the day of the trip, depending on weather conditions.
Where can I find a promo code for the Mont-Blanc MultiPass (one-day pass)?
There is no official promo code for the Mont-Blanc MultiPass (one-day pass). The best way to save money is still to book online at least three days in advance through the official sales websites, which offer dynamic pricing that is more affordable than buying at the ticket window on the day of your visit.
How does the Mont-Blanc Multi Pass work?
It’s easy to use: simply choose a duration (from 1 to 9 consecutive days, or non-consecutive days). Then, purchase your pass online or at the ticket counter, and activate it on a contactless card that grants access to the lift gates and included sites for the entire duration you selected.
What's the difference between this and the Mont Blanc Unlimited package?
The Mont Blanc MultiPass is a summer pass limited to the ski lifts and excursion sites in the Chamonix Valley. The Mont Blanc Unlimited pass, on the other hand, serves a completely different purpose: it’s a winter ski pass designed for skiers who want to spend their days on the slopes rather than going on summer excursions.
