Pointe des Auges, Mountain summit in Faverges-Seythenex, France.
The Pointe des Auges rises to 1814 meters in the Bauges Mountains, offering views across multiple Alpine ranges from its limestone peak.
The summit played a role in mapping the Bauges Mountains during the 19th century, when French geographers conducted extensive surveys of the region.
Local farmers maintain traditional grazing practices on the mountain slopes, continuing a centuries-old system of alpine pasture management.
Hikers can reach the summit through a marked trail starting at the Plateau des Glières, with the ascent taking approximately three hours.
The mountain contains several natural caves formed by water erosion, which serve as shelters for local wildlife populations.
