Cime des Collettes, Mountain summit in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France

The Cime des Collettes reaches an elevation of 1477 meters and stands on the watershed line between the Var and Estéron rivers.

The mountain area has maintained its natural character over centuries, with the Estéron river flowing 1300 meters below remaining unaltered by human development.

Local inhabitants of surrounding villages have developed trail networks through the state forest, connecting ancient settlements like Gabergia to modern communities.

Visitors can access the summit through a marked T1 hiking trail, with a total elevation gain of 550 meters requiring approximately 3.5 hours to complete.

From the peak, observers can view both the Mediterranean Sea and the Mercantour peaks while spotting multiple perched villages along narrow mountain ridges.
