Tête de Moëde

Tête de Moëde, Mountain summit in Passy, France.

Tête de Moëde is a summit in the French Alps above Passy, reaching 2,461 metres, 79 metres above the surrounding terrain, with a base width of about 0.34 kilometres. It lies 8.2 kilometres west-southwest of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, and the higher Tête à l'Ane (2,804 m) stands 2.1 kilometres to its east. The surrounding slopes are covered in grassland and heath.

Tête de Moëde is a 2,461 m summit in the Chamonix region, 8.2 km southwest of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc and 2.1 km west of the higher Tête à l'Ane (2,804 m). Its summit rises 79 m above the surrounding terrain, with a base width of about 0.34 km. The slopes are rocky alpine terrain, and the climate is tundra-type, averaging 1 °C.

The summit lies within the Sixt-Passy nature reserve, and the surrounding slopes are grazed seasonally, a practice that has shaped the open grassland around the peak. The name Moëde is a local Savoyard form; the nearby Refuge de Moëde Anterne takes its name from the same high pasture. Hikers based in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, about 8 km to the southwest, can see the peak from the valley.

Visitors need mountaineering experience and alpine skills before attempting this route, as the terrain involves challenging rock climbing sections. Starting early and checking weather conditions beforehand are essential to ensure safe daylight climbing and stable conditions throughout the ascent.

The summit rises 2,461 metres, 79 metres above the surrounding terrain, and its base spans about 0.34 kilometres. The higher Tête à l'Ane, at 2,804 metres, stands 2.1 kilometres to the east. The Chamonix-Mont-Blanc settlement lies 8.2 kilometres to the southwest, and the slopes around the peak are mostly covered in grassland.
