Signal de Lure, Mountain summit in Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur, France.
Signal de Lure reaches an elevation of 1,826 meters, offering views across the Luberon mountains and Durance valley in southern France.
The name Lure originates from Latin 'lurae', designating an ancient observation point used for monitoring activities across the region.
The summit contains the Marc Bianchi observatory, where visitors examine celestial bodies and astronomical phenomena throughout the year.
Multiple marked trails lead to the summit, with the nearest base town of Cereste providing accommodation and dining options for mountaineers.
The mountain supports rare insect species, including eastern eggars, large blues, and Sphinx tityus, making it valuable for entomological research.
