Tête de l'Estrop, Mountain summit in Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France.

Tête de l'Estrop is a sandstone summit in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence that dominates the local Alpine skyline. The mountain attracts both hikers and climbers, with several approach routes and opportunities for canyoning on its slopes.

The summit marks the exact boundary between the communes of Prads-Haute-Bléone and Méolans-Revel, and between the arrondissements of Digne and Barcelonnette. A radio station stood on the Signal, the 2,927 m secondary summit, until the 2010s. A wooden olive-wood statue of the Virgin now sits in a dry-stone alcove at the top.

The summit marks the boundary between the communes of Prads-Haute-Bléone and Méolans-Revel, and of the cantons of La Javie and Lauzet-Ubaye. In a stone alcove at the top stands a statue of the Virgin carved from olive wood, a landmark for walkers arriving by the cairned routes.

The climb requires solid footing and a head for heights, especially on sandy sections and steep drops. Start early, bring plenty of water, and watch the weather, as conditions in the mountains can change quickly.

At the summit, a wooden Virgin Mary statue carved from olive wood stands in a niche of dry stones. The Signal, the 2,927 m secondary top, carried a radio station until the 2010s. The final "p" in Estrop is silent.
