Puy de Girgols, Summit in Massif Central, France.

Rising to an elevation of 1,048 meters above sea level, Puy de Girgols stands within the Parc naturel régional des Volcans d'Auvergne in central France.

The formation of Puy de Girgols occurred through volcanic activity in the Massif Central region, contributing to the current topography of the Auvergne landscape.

The summit serves as a reference point for local communities, connecting multiple hiking trails that traverse through traditional farming territories of the Cantal region.

Visitors can access the summit through an 11.3-kilometer trail starting from Tournemire village, with the hike taking approximately 4 hours to complete.

The mountain exhibits a prominence of 58 meters, with its nearest higher neighbor being Luc, located 5.1 kilometers to the east-northeast at 1,334 meters.
