Puy de Barry, Summit in Aveyron department, France

The Puy de Barry rises above the surrounding landscape of the Aveyron department, reaching an elevation of approximately 800 meters above sea level.

The geological formation of Puy de Barry occurred during the Tertiary period through volcanic activity in the Massif Central region of France.

Local residents maintain traditional grazing practices on the slopes of Puy de Barry, continuing agricultural methods that date back several generations.

Hiking paths lead to the summit from multiple starting points, with the eastern trail offering the most gradual ascent for regular walkers.

The summit provides clear views of both the Aubrac plateau and the Lot valley, marking a natural boundary between these distinct geographical regions.
