Tête Ronde, Mountain summit in massif des Bornes, France.

The Tête Ronde peak reaches an elevation of 1864 meters between the municipalities of La Balme-de-Thuy and Dingy-Saint-Clair in the Haute-Savoie department.

The paths around Tête Ronde served as strategic passages for French resistance fighters during World War II, connecting to the Plateau des Glières.

Local hikers gather each September for a collective ascent of Tête Ronde, continuing a tradition established by alpine clubs in the region.

The main route from Dingy-Saint-Clair extends 10 kilometers with an elevation gain of 860 meters, requiring good physical condition and appropriate equipment.
