Roc de Beauvent, Mountain summit in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France.

The Roc de Beauvent rises to 1379 meters above sea level, featuring steep rock faces and natural limestone formations in the French pre-Alps.

The summit has functioned as a geographical reference point for local communities since the establishment of regional mapping systems in the 19th century.

Local mountaineering groups maintain several via ferrata routes on the rock face, continuing a tradition of technical climbing in the region.

Climbers need to bring helmets, harnesses, and proper gear to traverse the via ferrata routes, which take approximately three hours to complete.

The summit contains a tunnel section that requires headlamps, creating an unusual underground passage experience at high altitude.
