Roquo d'Astié

Roquo d'Astié is a mountain summit in the Massif Central range located in southern France. The peak rises to approximately 1060 meters and overlooks a landscape of grasslands, forests, and distant ridgelines.

The mountain took shape during continental plate collision roughly 360 million years ago, which created the Hercynian mountain chain. These geological events shaped the entire Massif Central and formed the region as it appears today.

The mountain paths include traditional stone huts like Cabane d'Hélène, reflecting the historical connection between local communities and the landscape.

Visitors should wear sturdy hiking boots and bring weather protection, as conditions can change quickly at higher elevations. Topographic maps or GPS applications help navigate the various routes available.

The summit holds a statistical position among French mountains, with 3013 peaks below and 4154 peaks above its elevation.
