Signal de Sauvagnac

Signal de Sauvagnac rises 702 meters above sea level as the highest point of the Monts d'Ambazac, offering extensive views across the Limousin plateau.

The location held strategic importance during the 19th century as the site of one of the first optical telegraph stations in the Limousin region of France.

The summit area connects multiple hiking paths where local residents gather for outdoor activities while exploring the natural environment of Haute-Vienne.

Access to the summit itself remains restricted due to military installations, but marked trails on the southern slopes provide opportunities for walking and nature observation.

The summit hosts a French Air Force radio center, which operates as one of six facilities responsible for monitoring and protecting national airspace.
