Subject: gondola lift Chamonix – Planpraz (Brévent area)
Dear customers, dear partners,
Following daily control at the end of operation, we noticed an anomaly on the pulley of the Planpraz gondola.

The Planpraz – Brévent cable car remains open as well as the Bergerie Planpraz and Panoramique Brévent restaurants.
The area of Planpraz remains accessible by footpaths from Chamonix and from la Flégère.
We apologize for the inconvenience and make every effort to ensure timely opening.
