The "Pic de Céüse" is at an elevation of 2,016 metres (6, 614 ft), and the whole massif is included in the Natura 2000 protected area. The mountain has a distinctive large horseshoe-shaped cliff (the Corniche de Céûse) which contains some of the most extreme sport climbing routes in the world. It was also the site of a ski resort.
