Tende (French pronunciation: [tɑ̃d]; Italian, Occitan and Royasc: Tenda) is a commune in the Alpes-Maritimes department in southeastern France.
Tende is located within Mercantour National Park in the French Alps. The mountainous commune is bordered by Italy to the north, with the boundary determined by the watershed line between the two countries. This line of mountain tops contains more than 20 summits exceeding 2,000 meters (ca. 6,562 ft).
A large rectangle of land running east–west, Tende is split from north to south by the Roya river valley. The tributary Réfréi river joins the Roya within the limits of Tende.
The Col de Tende (Tende Pass), a strategic pass through the Alps to Piedmont, has been modernized to be a road and railway tunnel.
"From Menton to Sospel on the D566 [currently the D2566]. Turn right onto the D204 [currently the D6204]. Quarries with galena, limonite, quartz, and sphalerite on both sides of the D204 [currently the D6204] before reaching the locality." [Belot, 1978]
