Tête Blanche (French pronunciation: [tɛt blɑ̃ʃ], lit.
'White Head') is a mountain of the Pennine Alps on the Swiss-Italian border.
Its summit (3,710 metres) is the tripoint between the valleys of Hérens, Mattertal (both in Valais) and Valpelline (in the Aosta Valley), thus forming the linguistic tri-point between French (Val d'Hérens and Aosta Valley), German (Mattertal), and Italian (bilingual Aosta Valley) -speaking areas.
Tête Blanche is generally the high point of the Haute route between Chamonix and Zermatt and the annually race Patrouille des Glaciers.
Tête Blanche lies within a few kilometres of the Matterhorn and Dent d'Hérens on the east.
