Mont d'Hermone, Mountain summit at 1413 meters in Haute-Savoie, France.
Mont d'Hermone contains sedimentary rock formations creating two distinct anticlines that shape the main ridge and northwestern flank of the mountain.
The geological structure of Mont d'Hermone reveals layers of siliceous limestone from the Lias period, forming the current mountain vault.
The mountain serves as a natural boundary between several communes, connecting local communities through shared natural heritage and outdoor activities.
Multiple hiking trails start from the towns of Lyaud, Vailly, and Orcier, with designated areas for paragliding launches near the summit.
The mountain features a parasitic fold particularly developed in its eastern section, displaying a dismantled hinge exposing the Triassic core.
