Signal du Bougès, Mountain summit in Cans et Cévennes, France
Signal du Bougès reaches an elevation of 1,421 meters and represents the highest point of the Bougès massif in the Cévennes mountain range.
The mountain gained recognition through Robert Louis Stevenson's travels, documented in his 1879 book about his journey through the Cévennes with a donkey.
Two major French hiking routes, the GR68 and GR70, intersect at the summit, making it a central point for long-distance walking enthusiasts.
The ascent to Signal du Bougès is accessible through marked trails from multiple starting points in the Lozère department throughout the year.
The summit provides expansive views of the Occitanie region, with visibility extending across the Cévennes National Park to Mont Lozère.
