Grande Roche de Trélatête, Alpine summit in Contamines-Montjoie, France
The Grande Roche de Trélatête rises above the surrounding landscape with steep rock faces and a prominent position overlooking the Trélatête glacier.
Mountain guides from the Contamines region started mapping routes to the summit during the early development of Alpine mountaineering in the 1800s.
The mountain represents a significant part of French Alpine heritage, drawing mountaineers who maintain traditional climbing practices in the region.
Climbers require proper mountaineering gear, including ropes, crampons, and ice axes, along with experience in glacier travel and rock climbing techniques.
The summit offers views of both French and Italian Alpine ranges, providing a natural border observation point between the two countries.
