Montagne de la Lance, Free flight site in Drôme, France.

The mountain reaches an elevation of 1,340 meters at Rocher Garaux and forms a natural barrier between Mediterranean and alpine climates in southeastern France.

Celtic populations established their city of Aeria near the current location, leaving archaeological evidence including caves and ruins in the central section.

The mountain ridges mark the boundaries between seven municipalities: Teyssières, Montjoux, Roche-Saint-Secret-Béconne, Montbrison-sur-Lez, Le Pègue, Venterol, and Aubres.

From Teyssières, hikers follow the Chemin des Favières with yellow markings to Col de Coucourdet, then take the red-yellow trail to reach the summit.

A 400-year-old beech tree grove stands along the hiking path, while the southern slopes contain green oak forests that become scarce on the northern side.
