Grand Quayrat, Mountain summit in Haute-Garonne, France.
Located in the Valley of Oô within the Pyrenees mountain range, Grand Quayrat reaches an elevation of 3,060 meters above sea level.
In 1789, physicist Henri Reboul led the first documented expedition to reach the summit, making it the second peak above 3000 meters to be climbed.
The name Grand Quayrat originates from Occitan 'cairat', meaning square, referring to the mountain's distinct angular shape when observed from the north.
Climbers access the summit through marked trails starting at Granges d'Astau, passing by the Espingo refuge at 1,960 meters altitude.
The ascent involves a challenging 1,900-meter elevation gain, requiring technical climbing skills and careful navigation through rocky terrain sections.
