Agulla Badet, Mountain peak in Néouvielle massif, Hautes-Pyrénées, France
Agulla Badet is a mountain summit in the Néouvielle massif that rises dramatically with steep rocky walls on its north-facing side. The sharp granite peak stands out clearly when viewed from the surrounding terrain.
The peak became protected in 1967 when the Pyrenees National Park was established to safeguard the mountain ecosystem. Climbers gradually mapped and documented routes to the summit over decades of expeditions.
Local mountaineering communities maintain detailed records of climbing routes and conditions through the seasons for future expeditions.
Climbing this summit requires technical skill and mountain experience, particularly on the steep northern walls. Summer months provide the best conditions when snow and ice have retreated.
The summit is a striking granite needle that rises like a finger from the mountain, standing distinctly apart from surrounding rock formations. This sharp form makes it a recognizable landmark when viewing the broader mountain range.
