Bric de Rubren, Mountain summit at French-Italian border, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France.
Rising to 3,340 meters, Bric de Rubren forms a natural boundary between France and Italy with steep slopes and rocky outcrops at its peak.
The mountain's current border position was established through the 1860 Treaty of Turin, which redefined territorial boundaries between France and Italy.
Local communities from both French and Italian sides maintain traditional Alpine farming practices and seasonal grazing routes around the mountain slopes.
Access to Bric de Rubren requires advanced mountaineering skills and equipment, with summer months offering the most favorable climbing conditions.
The mountain features two official names: Bric de Rubren in French and Cima Mongioia in Italian, reflecting its position between two nations.
