Pic Occabé, Mountain summit in French Pyrenees

The Pic Occabé rises to 1456 meters, featuring limestone formations and snow-covered slopes that extend across the northern section of the French Pyrenees.

Ancient stone circles, known as cromlechs, lie beneath the snow around the summit, indicating prehistoric human presence and activities in this mountainous region.

The mountain stands as a natural boundary between French and Spanish Basque territories, marking traditional pastoral routes used by local shepherds through generations.

Hikers can access the summit through a 4.5-kilometer trail from Mendive, with the GR10 long-distance path providing a marked route to the peak.

The summit presents direct views of Pic d'Orhy at 2017 meters, while wild animal tracks in virgin snow reveal the mountain's natural inhabitants.
