The Aiguille de Triolet (3,870 metres (12,697 ft)) is a mountain on the eastern part the Mont Blanc massif, on the border between France and Italy.

Located on a long ridge that includes peaks such as Mont Dolent and Grandes Jorasses, the Aiguille de Triolet lies above the Argentière Glacier and is usually climbed from this side, starting at Chamonix. Its north face is regarded as one of the classic ice climbs of the Alps.^[2]
