Pointe des Trois Hommes

The Pointe des Trois Hommes reaches an elevation of 2,775 meters, offering views across the Southern Alps and Mediterranean landscapes of southeastern France.

The mountain stands as a testament to geological formations dating back millions of years, shaped by tectonic movements that created the Alpine mountain range.

Local shepherds maintain traditional farming practices in the surrounding valleys, continuing centuries-old methods of regional cheese production and wool gathering.

Hiking trails to the summit remain accessible from June through September, with proper mountaineering equipment required due to steep terrain and variable weather conditions.

The summit marks a geographical point where three distinct ecological zones intersect, creating an environment where Alpine, Mediterranean, and continental flora species coexist.
