Trient

Trient

Set 1,300 metres above sea level, nestled at the foot of the glacier which overlooks it, the village of Trient is finely balanced: both a place of passage and life, open to the world and well set in wild and unspoiled nature, it is located on the Col de la Forclaz road, between Chamonix and Martigny. Also located on the Tour du Mont Blanc, it symbolises the stability in this itinerant movement accentuated by the flow of the legendary UTMB race. Its unusual raspberry-pink church entices visitors to subtly discover other more discreet points of interest, such as the military forts of Litroz and La Forclaz, the mysterious Gorges de Tête Noire and the Bisse du Trient.
