Pic de Creussans

Pic de Creussans is a mountain summit located on the border between Andorra and France, rising to 2,682 meters in the Pyrenees. The peak forms a natural boundary marker between Andorran territory and the French department of Ariège.

The peak has served as a geographical dividing line between France and Andorra since medieval times and played a role in border negotiations between the territories. Its function as a border marker shaped how the region's political boundaries developed across centuries.

Shepherds from both sides have used the high pastures around the peak for grazing livestock through generations. The herding traditions visible here shape how people connect with mountain life on either side of the border.

Climbing the peak requires proper mountain equipment and good physical preparation for the demanding ascent. Visitors should know mountain trails or bring an experienced guide and be prepared for changing weather at high altitude.

From this peak, visitors can stand in two countries at the same time while surveying both Andorran and French landscapes. This direct proximity to the border makes it a rare location where European territories come together in a tangible way.
