Grand Astazou, Mountain summit in Hautes Pyrenees, France.
Grand Astazou reaches an elevation of 3,071 meters above sea level, standing as a prominent peak along the French-Spanish border in the Pyrenean mountain range.
Count H. Russell and mountain guide Célestin Passet completed the first documented climb to the summit of Grand Astazou on July 21, 1879.
The mountain forms part of the Three Thousanders collection, a series of peaks that mountaineers specifically target for their altitude and technical climbing requirements.
The summer season provides the most favorable conditions for climbing Grand Astazou, with access routes available from both the French town of Gavarnie and Spanish Pineta Valley.
From the summit, climbers can observe the north face of Monte Perdido while following the southern route through the Pineta Valley section.
