Ouille d'Arbéron, Mountain summit between Savoie, France and Piedmont, Italy
The Ouille d'Arbéron peak reaches 3,560 meters in elevation and forms a natural border between France and Italy in the Graian Alps range.
The mountain's geological formation dates back 30 million years, featuring distinct layers of schist, serpentinite, and gneiss rock structures throughout its composition.
The mountain carries two names across borders: Ouille d'Arbéron in French territories and Punta d'Arnas throughout the Italian regions of the Alps.
Climbers can access the summit through the Avérole Refuge at 2,210 meters or the Luigi Cibrario Refuge at 2,616 meters, both providing essential base camps.
The mountain requires crossing the Col de la Valette at 3,212 meters to reach the Bouanet Glacier at 2,900 meters before accessing the western ridge.
