Aiguille Large de Marinet, Mountain summit in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France.

The Aiguille Large de Marinet reaches 2,640 meters in elevation and features steep rocky paths leading to a high-altitude plateau in the French Alps.

The mountain stands as a testament to geological formations dating back millions of years when tectonic forces shaped the Alpine mountain range.

Local shepherds maintain traditional pastoral practices in the surrounding valleys, guiding their flocks through the mountain pastures during summer months.

The ascent from Saint-Paul-sur-Ubaye requires 7 hours round trip, covering 14.6 kilometers with a 962-meter elevation gain through marked trails.

The summit provides views of three mountain ranges: the Ubaye, Queyras, and Mercantour, with multiple alpine lakes reflecting the sky below.
