Mont Saint-Honorat, Mountain summit in Alpes-Maritimes, France

Mont Saint-Honorat reaches an elevation of 2,520 meters and extends southward through the Corpatas ridge in the Pelat mountain range.

The mountain formation occurred during the Alpine orogeny, with Annot sandstone blocks positioned on top of nummulitic limestone through geological processes.

Local shepherds maintain their traditional practices in the alpine meadows near Mont Saint-Honorat, where sheep graze during summer months.

Hikers can access the mountain from Pra d'Airaud parking area, following yellow markers through a 17-kilometer trail that requires 7 hours to complete.

The summit stands in proximity to the red-colored Daluis gorges, creating a geological contrast between the sandstone peak and surrounding limestone formations.
