Montagne des Ubacs, Mountain summit in Bouches-du-Rhône, France

The Montagne des Ubacs reaches an elevation of 697 meters between the Sainte-Victoire and Concors massifs in the Bouches-du-Rhône department.

The communities in this region established their settlements on the southern slopes, opposite to the ubacs, to benefit from better solar exposure.

The term ubac refers to the northern slope of a mountain receiving less sunlight, which determines vegetation patterns and human settlement choices.

The D11 road crosses the northern slope of the mountain through the Grand-Sambuc pass at an elevation of 615 meters.

The mountain extends over 6 kilometers in length, forming a natural barrier between different areas of the Bouches-du-Rhône department.

Location: Bouches-du-Rhône

Elevation above the sea: 697 m
