Pic Joffre, Mountain summit in Taurinya, France
Pic Joffre rises to 2360.1 meters in elevation within the Canigou Massif, offering expansive views across the Pyrénées-Orientales department of southern France.
The mountain has long served as a natural boundary marker between France and Spain, contributing to the territorial organization of the Pyrenean border region.
The mountain holds significance in French Catalan heritage, marking the northern limits of Catalan influence and traditional mountain practices in the region.
Multiple marked trails lead to Pic Joffre from Cortalets mountain hut, with the main path following yellow markings for a thirty-minute ascent to the summit.
The summit provides access points to both Mediterranean and Atlantic watersheds, creating distinct microclimates that support varied plant species on different slopes.
