Pic de la Coumeille, Mountain peak in Eastern Pyrenees, France
The Pic de la Coumeille reaches an elevation of 1524 meters, providing views across the Canigou massif and the surrounding ridges of La Preste.
The peak overlooks Fort Lagarde, established in 1677 as part of the French border defenses against Spanish incursions in the Pyrenean region.
The trails leading to the summit cross traditional Catalan shepherding lands where mountain pastoral practices have continued through multiple generations.
The ascent begins from the Prats-de-Mollo town center parking lot and follows marked trails through wooded areas before reaching more exposed terrain.
The climb reveals three distinct ecosystems: Mediterranean forest, alpine meadows, and high-altitude rocky zones, each with specific plant communities.
