Le Cuchon, Mountain summit in Dévoluy Mountains, France.
Le Cuchon reaches an elevation of 1,903 meters above sea level and features a prominence of 257 meters in the Hautes-Alpes department.
The mountain stands as part of the Alpine and Dauphiné Prealps ranges, which were formed through geological processes spanning millions of years.
Local mountaineering traditions have established multiple hiking routes connecting Le Cuchon to neighboring peaks, including the notable Pic de Charance circuit.
Hikers can access the summit through an 11.1-kilometer trail starting from Saint-Léger-les-Mélèzes, with parking available at the Snow-front location.
The mountain's isolation creates a natural barrier with its nearest higher neighbor, La Cuquère, situated 3.6 kilometers to the northeast.
