Punta Lourde Rocheblave

The Punta Lourde Rocheblave rises to 3,104 meters within the Perdiguero massif, marking the border between Spain and France in the Pyrenees mountains.

The peak has served as a natural boundary marker between Spain and France since the Treaty of the Pyrenees was signed in 1659.

Local mountaineers from both Spanish and French communities gather annually at the summit to celebrate their shared mountain heritage through traditional songs.

Climbers can access the summit through multiple routes from both countries, with the Spanish approach starting in Benasque and the French route beginning in Luchon.

The mountain holds three different names across regional languages: Tuca de Puixebres in Aranese, Lourde Rocheblave Tontorra in Basque, and Punta Lourde Rocheblave in Spanish.
