North summit of Mont Mézenc

Highlight • Summit

North summit of the two-part Mont Mézenc with a great panorama, weather permitting.
At 1744m, it is the highest point in the Haute-Loire department. The southern peak already belongs to the department of Ardèche. The iron cross on the north summit was erected by French prisoners upon their return from German camps.
Like so many peaks in this region, the plateau is of volcanic origin. If you are lucky, you can see marmots on the mountain slopes.
