Belloc S, Mountain summit at French Pyrenees border between Haute-Garonne and Hautes-Pyrénées, France.
Belloc S is a mountain summit in the French Pyrenees standing at 3007 meters. Its slopes are formed of granodiorite, a hard rock that creates steep, exposed terrain typical of this part of the range.
This summit sits on the border between Haute-Garonne and Hautes-Pyrénées departments, which became administratively separate in 1790. Since then, the mountain has marked the line between these two regions.
Local mountaineering groups maintain detailed records of ascents to Belloc S, documenting various climbing routes and seasonal conditions.
This summit is only reachable for experienced mountaineers with proper equipment, as no marked trails lead to the top. Visitors need guides and weather-appropriate gear, especially given the exposed conditions at this elevation.
The summit's location at coordinates 42.7126732, 0.4800128 provides views extending across both the Haute-Garonne and Hautes-Pyrénées valleys.
