Pointe de la Saume, Mountain summit in Ceillac, France
The Pointe de la Saume reaches an elevation of 2,724 meters, offering clear views across the surrounding peaks of the French Alps.
The formation of Pointe de la Saume occurred through geological processes millions of years ago when tectonic plates collided to create the Alpine mountain range.
Local mountaineers regularly organize guided tours to share their knowledge of the mountain's geology and alpine vegetation with visiting groups.
The climb requires proper equipment including hiking poles, sturdy boots, and weather-appropriate clothing due to rapid temperature changes at high altitudes.
Within a radius of 2.14 kilometers from its peak, no other mountain surpasses the height of Pointe de la Saume, creating an isolated prominence.
