Mount Blanc, often regarded as the highest peak in the Alps, was first ascended by Jacques Balmat and Michel-Gabriel Paccard on August 8, 1786. While the mountain itself was known to locals prior to this ascent, Balmat and Paccard are credited with the first successful climb, which marked a significant moment in mountaineering history. Their achievement sparked interest in alpine exploration and led to the peak becoming a popular destination for climbers.
