Mont d'Alambre, Volcanic mountain peak in Haute-Loire, France.
Mont d'Alambre rises to 1691 meters in the Massif Central, forming the second highest elevation point in the Haute-Loire department of France.
The mountain's name evolved from Alambretum in the 11th century to Mons Alambra in 1203, marking its long-standing presence in regional records.
The mountain area maintains traditional pastoral activities, supporting local shepherds who continue centuries-old farming methods in the high meadows.
Visitors can access the summit through a 4.4-kilometer hiking trail starting from Les Estables, with a vertical climb of 308 meters taking about 2 hours.
The mountain functions as both a winter ski destination with lifts reaching 1650 meters and a summer paragliding launch site.
