Haut-Folin

Haut-Folin, Mountain summit in Saône-et-Loire, France

Haut-Folin is a 901-metre summit in the commune of Saint-Prix, Saône-et-Loire, the highest point of both the Morvan massif and Burgundy. Its wooded crest in the Bois du Roi carries a tall, slender television relay mast, grey-white with red-and-white bands near the top, rising from the conifers. A smaller structure stands just to its right.

The mountain has long formed a natural divide between the basins of the Seine and Loire rivers. Its position in the Morvan range made it a lasting feature throughout the region's geological development.

The summit carries the Autun-Bois-du-Roi television relay, a TDF transmitter that also broadcasts public radio on FM. The GR 13 long-distance footpath, running from Fontainebleau to Bourbon-Lancy, crosses the mountain. The summit is the highest point of both the Saône-et-Loire department and Burgundy.

The summit can be reached via various hiking trails, with parking available nearby, particularly at Maison Forestière du Bas Folin. During winter months, the area offers around 40 kilometers of cross-country skiing trails for visitors.

On clear days the summit's unobstructed view reaches the Mont Blanc, 250 km away. The summit also carries the TDF Autun-Bois-du-Roi television transmitter, which broadcasts public radio on FM. A 45 m observation tower proposed by the German firm EAK in 2016 was dropped when its profitability could not be assured.
