Colle du Maçon, Mountain summit and viewpoint in Caussols, France
Located at an elevation of 1417 meters, Colle du Maçon presents views of both the Mediterranean coastline and the peaks of Mercantour National Park.
The summit has served as a reference point for local communities since ancient times, guiding travelers and shepherds through the Préalpes du Sud region.
The nearby Col du Clapier contains a stone pile linked to a medieval tale of villagers who stoned a woman accused of witchcraft.
Visitors can access the summit through multiple marked trails, including the GR4, with a central parking area available near Caussols school and town hall.
The location forms part of a circular hiking route connecting nine geocaches, installed in September 2017, leading hikers along a former CAF mountain trail.
