Croix de Cibouit

Croix de Cibouit, Mountain peak in Massif des Écrins, France.

Croix de Cibouit is a summit in the French Alps at 2,611 metres elevation, rising 121 metres above the surrounding terrain. It lies about 13.2 kilometres east of Briançon, within the Massif des Écrins near Le Monêtier-les-Bains. The surrounding landscape is mountainous, with the higher Pic Gardiner (3,440 m) about 3.1 kilometres to the northeast.

The sources record no medieval herding history for Croix de Cibouit; the summit is documented only by its topography. It rises to 2,611 m, 121 m above the surrounding terrain, with a base width of about 0.57 km, and lies 13.2 km west of Briançon in the Massif des Écrins. The nearest higher peak is Pic Gardiner, 3,440 m, 3.1 km to the northeast.

The name Cibouit refers to the cross that gives the summit its name, a landmark in the mountains above Le Monêtier-les-Bains. The peak lies about 13 km west of Briançon, and the surrounding slopes are used as pasture, with grassland covering much of the terrain around it. The summit rises 121 m above the surrounding ridge, which is 0.57 km wide at its base.

The area is accessible year-round, though the best window for hiking is from June through September when snow cover is minimal and the trail remains safe. Visitors should bring weather-resistant gear and sturdy footwear as mountain conditions can change quickly.

Croix de Cibouit rises 2,611 m, about 121 m above the surrounding terrain, with a base width of roughly 0.57 km. The higher Pic Gardiner, 3,440 m, stands 3.1 km to the northeast, and Briançon lies 13.2 km to the west.
