Mont Blanc is the highest mountain of the European continent which is located in the Alps Mountain Range having the elevation of 4,810 m (15,781 ft) above sea level. Mont Blanc, the white queen of the Alps is one of the famous Seven Summits which is popular in the world for hiking, skiing, snowboarding and mountaineering adventure. Mont Blanc lies in a range called the Graian Alps, between the regions of Asota valley of Italy, and  Haute-Savoie, France. Mont Blanc is also known as Monte Bianco which is an Italian word meaning, “ The White Mountain”. The summit of Mont Blanc is a thick, perennial ice and snow dome whose thickness varies. No exact and permanent summit elevation can therefore be determined, though accurate measurements have been made on specific dates.
