Mont Gelé, Mountain summit in Valais, Switzerland

Mont Gelé is a 3,022-metre summit of the Pennine Alps in Valais, on the ridge separating the Val de Nendaz from the Faraz valley. Its top is the tripoint of Bagnes, Riddes and Nendaz, and it is the southernmost peak of a crest that also carries Mont Gond and the Dent de Nendaz. An aerial cable car reaches a station at 3,002 metres.

Mont Gelé is the southernmost summit of a north–south crest separating the Val de Nendaz from the Faraz valley; the same ridge carries Mont Gond and the Dent de Nendaz. Its summit is the tripoint of the communes of Bagnes, Riddes and Nendaz. It is one of two mountains named Mont Gelé in the Bagnes valley, the other lying on the Italian border.

Mont Gelé lies at the tripoint of the municipalities of Bagnes, Riddes and Nendaz, so three communes meet at its summit. The ridge it stands on separates the Nendaz valley to the east from the Faraz valley to the west, and the same crest carries Mont Gond and the Dent de Nendaz to the north. The name is shared with a second Mont Gelé in the Bagnes valley, on the Italian border.

The cable car's upper station sits at 3,002 m, just below the 3,022 m summit, so only a short walk remains. In summer the summit is reached on foot instead, via the col de Chassoure from the north or the Cabane du Mont-Fort from the south, both rated T3 mountain routes.

Two distinct ski routes descend from the summit allowing experienced skiers to navigate through untracked snow terrain. These off-piste slopes are recommended only for skilled skiers with avalanche safety knowledge.
