Mont Coin, Mountain summit in Savoie, France
Mont Coin is a mountain summit at 2539 meters elevation within the Beaufortain massif, offering wide views of surrounding French Alpine peaks. The peak rises near Beaufort and displays the typical geology of the northern Alps.
The mountain served as summer grazing grounds for shepherds and their herds for centuries, showing the region's long connection to Alpine pastoralism. This tradition shaped the Beaufortain landscape through generations.
The Beaufortain region surrounding this peak has long been shaped by Beaufort cheese production, made on high pastures using traditional methods that remain part of local life. Visitors can experience this cheese-making tradition in the valley farms below.
Climbing requires appropriate mountain gear and good physical fitness due to the significant elevation gain from starting points. The best access comes from the valleys on the Beaufort side.
The north and south faces display different rock formations that support distinct Alpine plant communities. These geological differences create side-by-side ecosystems across the peak.
