Cime de Pelousette

A magnificent viewpoint over Salso Moreno and the Italian border for you here. You will also see the black areas (marl) whose colour runs off into the Tinée during powerful storms. This rocky bar is also the border between the departments of Alpes-Maritimes and Alpes de Haute-Provence. GR5 crosses these mountains and connects Ubaye (Lauzanier) with Tinée.

At an altitude of 2757m, with a magnificent 360° view over the Ubaye valleys, Bonnet Carré, the Bonette valley and Salso Moreno. You can also see an old military fort which dates from the beginning of the last century. This fort was part of a set of fortifications integrated into the Maginot Line in the Alps. This fort was permanently occupied until 1914. Ibex, chamois, marmots, birds of prey and snowfinches can often be found in this area.
