Pic Pétarel, Mountain summit in Haute-Alpes, France.
Pic Pétarel rises to an elevation of 2466 meters in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, surrounded by alpine meadows and rocky terrain.
The mountain's geological features were shaped during the last ice age when glaciers carved through the granitic rock formations of the region.
Local shepherds maintain the ancient practice of seasonal grazing on the mountain slopes during the summer months.
The hiking trail to the summit involves a 1224-meter elevation gain and requires proper mountain equipment and good physical condition.
The mountain peak stands above multiple alpine lakes that serve as natural mirrors, reflecting the surrounding landscape in their waters.
