The Monte Freidour (1445m) is a mountain in the Hautes - Alpes. Actually, the Monte Freidour consists of three peaks. Monte Freidour, Monte Sperino and Monte Tre Denti. The summit cross of the Freidour is intended to portray a sail that commemorates a plane crash in October 1944, killing all 8 crew members aged 20-24. The summit consists of a meadow. The mountain slopes are mainly covered with beech and birch. Beech trees can cause problems if the foliage covers the paths and you can not see the ground (danger of slipping). The view extends from Mon Viso (3841m), Punta dell`Aquilla (2119m), Rocciamelone (3538m), the Gran Paradiso (4061m) to the Piedmontese plain.

Beautiful walk, suitable for any season of the year. Watch out for the processionary moth in spring, at the beginning of the path starting from the Ciardonet hill you can see several nuclei near the path. The continuation of the excursion is also beautiful, which with a long ridge leads to Mount Tredenti.

A beautiful peak of the Pinerolo area with a panoramic view. In 1994 a winged monument was placed on the summit in memory of the 50th anniversary of the plane crash that cost the lives of 8 British airmen returning from an operation to supply aid to the partisans
