  • Derborence és un llogarret del municipi de Conthey, al cantó de Valais, Suïssa. Es troba a 1,450 metres en una vall aïllada del costat sud dels Alps Bernesos i no és permanentment habitada. Derborence és completament envoltat per muntanyes: Els Diablerets (més alt) al nord, Haut de Cryt al sud i Mont Gond a l'est. A Derborence s'hi pot arribar per una carretera des de Conthey, o a peu des de Gryon via el . El Llac Derborence va ser format el 1749 després de dues esllavissades de la paret del sud dels Diablerets. Milers de tones de roques van caure d'una alçada de 1900 metres el 1714 i 1749, caient a 400 metres a sota i formant una llarga barrera natural de 2 km que gradualment es va omplir d'aigua. Un bosc verge va créixer a sobre les restes rocoses, compost de pícees, pins, làrixs, pins escocesos, faigs i salzes. L'àrea va ser adquirida per el 1961 i és ara zona protegida. La vall és excepcionalment rica en fauna, amb íbex, isards, cérvols, marmotes i llebres i diverses espècies d'ocell incloent-hi el mussol, àguila daurada, trencalòs i gralla alpina. (ca)
  • Derborence is a hamlet in the municipality of Conthey, in the canton of Valais, in Switzerland.

Derborence can be reached by a road from Conthey, or by foot from Gryon, using the Pas de Cheville. Lake Derborence was formed in 1749 after two landslides coming from the south wall of the Diablerets. Thousands of tons of rock came crashing down from a height of 1900 metres in 1714 and 1749, coming to 400 metres below and forming a 2 kilometre-long natural barrier which gradually filled with water. A virgin forest grew on the rock debris. It consists of spruce, pine, larch, scots pine, beech and willows. The area was acquired by Pro Natura in 1961 and is now protected. The valley, which is exceptionally rich in fauna, is a natural habitat for ibex, chamois, deer, marmots and hares and several bird species including the owl, golden eagle, bearded vulture and alpine chough.
