Au pays du Mont-Blanc
COMBLOUX Hte SAVOIE alt. : 986m.
Echappée sur le village; en fond, le Mont-Blanc 4810m.
Mont Blanc is the highest mountain in the Alps, Western Europe, and the European Union. It rises 4810.45m above sea level and is ranked 11th in the world in topographic prominence. It is also sometimes known as La Dame blanche or Il Bianco (Italian for "the White One").
The mountain lies in a range called the Graian Alps, between the regions of Aosta Valley, Italy, and Haute-Savoie, France. The location of the summit is on the watershed line between the valleys of Ferret and Veny in Italy and the Arve Valley in France. The Mont Blanc massif is popular for mountaineering, hiking, skiing, and snowboarding.
The two most famous towns near Mont Blanc are Courmayeur in Aosta Valley, Italy, and Chamonix in Haute-Savoie, France — the site of the first Winter Olympics.
