Cima Saurel, Mountain peak in Cottian Alps, France and Italy
The Cima Saurel reaches an elevation of 2,451 meters and stands as a natural border marker between the Metropolitan City of Turin and Hautes-Alpes.
The mountain has served as a geographical reference point for local communities since the establishment of the French-Italian border in the Alpine region.
Local mountaineering groups from both French and Italian sides organize regular expeditions to maintain traditional climbing routes across the mountain slopes.
Access to Cima Saurel starts from Le Laus at 1,746 meters, with designated parking areas and clear trail markers leading to different climbing paths.
During winter months, the northern face accumulates deeper snow layers than the southern side, creating distinct skiing conditions on each slope.
