Marboré Peak (Pic de Marboré, [2] El Marboré [3]) is a summit in the Pyrenees located on the Franco-Spanish border crest in the Monte Perdido Range. [4]
Marboré Peak is one of the peaks above Cirque de Gavarnie. It marks the border between the Pyrenees National Park ( France) and the Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park ( Spain).
Philippe de Nemours in 1846 was perhaps the first to have climbed Marboré Peak, though we lack precision to attribute it to him.
