Signal du Luguet

Signal du Luguet is a mountain summit in the Cézallier range of the Massif Central, rising to approximately 1,557 meters (5,110 feet). It marks the highest point in this mountain system and provides expansive views across the volcanic landscape.

The mountain formed from ancient lava flows millions of years ago, which solidified and were shaped by erosion over time. This volcanic origin continues to define the appearance and geological character of the region.

The summit has long served residents of Anzat-le-Luguet as a landmark and weather observation point. Local people use this prominent location to orient themselves and understand the landscape around them.

The ascent follows a network of trails leading to the summit, with parking available at the base. The routes vary in difficulty and take different amounts of time depending on which path you choose.

The eastern face features the Artout cirque, a valley shaped by glacial action during ice age conditions. This glacial landform reveals the dramatic ice history and sculpts the face of the mountain distinctly.
