Punta Minuta, Mountain summit in Albertacce, Haute-Corse, France
Punta Minuta is a mountain summit in the Monte Cinto massif in Haute-Corse. The peak stands at 2556 meters elevation and belongs to the tallest mountains on the island of Corsica.
This peak has long served as a reference point for shepherds moving animals between different grazing zones. The traditional herding routes shaped how mountain communities developed in the surrounding valleys.
The peak forms a natural barrier between different Corsican valleys, influencing the development of distinct local communities and their mountain traditions.
The route from Haut Ascu demands climbing experience as it crosses steep and technical sections. Metal chains and fixed ladders help climbers navigate the most difficult stretches.
The mountain stands 1.88 kilometers from Monte Cinto, creating a prominent geographical feature in the Grande Barriere mountain chain.
