La Calbe, Mountain summit in Ariège Pyrenees, France.

Located at an elevation of 2,185 meters in the Ariège Pyrenees Regional Nature Park, La Calbe presents extensive views over the Siguer Valley.

For centuries, shepherds used this summit as a vantage point to monitor their flocks, with remnants of an old shelter still visible at the top.

Local shepherds maintain the ancient tradition of transhumance by leading their herds to the summit pastures during the summer grazing season.

Reaching the summit requires proper hiking equipment and good physical condition to navigate the marked trails from the village of Gestiès.

The Fount Cendrasse torrent flows at the mountain base, near a former captured spring that once supplied water to surrounding villages.
