Montagne d'Aureille

Located at an elevation of 1267 meters, Montagne d'Aureille presents a mix of pine forests and open terrain overlooking the Chauranne Valley.

The mountain held three active distilleries during its past lavender production period, contributing to the local agricultural development of Haute-Beaume.

Local farmers maintain the tradition of using the mountain meadows for livestock grazing during summer months, continuing centuries-old pastoral practices.

The hiking trail extends 5.5 kilometers from Col de la Haute Beaume, featuring a moderate elevation gain of 224 meters over a 2.5-hour duration.

Birds of prey frequently utilize the thermal currents rising from the valley, providing opportunities for wildlife observation throughout the year.
