Pic de Petit Rochebrune, Alpine summit in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France
The Pic de Petit Rochebrune rises to an elevation of 3,078 meters with a prominence of 248 meters in the Cottian Alps mountain range.
The mountain sits between the Queyras and Cerveyrette valleys, which have served as natural passages through the Alps since ancient Roman times.
The name Petit Rochebrune derives from the dark color of its rock formations, reflecting the geological characteristics of this section of the French Alps.
Mountaineers can access the summit through Les Fonts village in Cervières, with the Refuge Fonts de Cervières providing accommodation at 2,040 meters.
The mountain spans across two municipalities, Cervières and Aiguilles, and forms part of the Parc naturel régional du Queyras established in 1977.
