關於
Tête du Colonney (French pronunciation: [tɛt dy kɔlɔnɛ]; 2,692 m) is a mountain in the Chablais Alps in Haute-Savoie, France.
Standing above the Plateau d'Assy, the mountain provides unobscured views of Mont Blanc to the southeast from its summit.
It is located in the Faucigny massif, west of the Platé desert, on the border of the communes of Sallanches and Passy.
The toponym Colonney has no certified Latin origin and is assumed to be of Celtic origin, with the Gaulish word colono meaning "common property". The Tête du Colonney materialized perhaps the boundary between two countries. On its foot, in the commune of Sallanches, another name is characteristic of the boundaries between territories: Arpenaz and its waterfall, of the Gaulish "arepennis" meaning end of the land.
