Pointe de Bellevue

Pointe de Bellevue is a mountain peak in the Valais Alps made up of sedimentary rock layers. The summit sits between Troistorrents and Collombey-Muraz, with several hiking routes crossing its slopes and ridges.

Local communities have used this mountain as a crossing point between valleys for centuries. By the 1800s, regular trails had formed to move people and livestock to higher pastures and settlements.

The areas around the summit show signs of local mountain life, with paths and structures built by people who live in the surrounding valleys. You can see how the communities below use these slopes as part of their everyday landscape.

Proper hiking equipment and attention to weather changes are needed for the ascent, as conditions shift quickly at this elevation. Starting early and checking local trail information before you go will help make your visit safer.

The sedimentary rock layers here show clear traces of ancient seas and geological shifts. Hikers who pay attention to the stone patterns can see how the landscape changed over millions of years.
