Pic du Gar, Mountain summit in Haute-Garonne, France

The limestone peak rises to 1785 meters above sea level, commanding a central position in the Pyrenees mountain range near Saint-Beat.

Throughout centuries, Pic du Gar has stood as a natural marker for the high valley of the Garonne River, flowing from Val d'Aran.

The secondary summit, Pic Saillant at 1756 meters, features a summit cross that represents the regional mountaineering traditions.

Hikers can reach the mountain peak through established routes starting from the towns of Eup or Saint-Pe-d'Ardet throughout the year.

The mountain's karstic structure creates specific geological formations, with coordinates at 42.95 degrees North and 0.70 degrees East.
