Monte Antola — Vetta e Cresta
Liguria
Monte Antola (1,597 m) is the highest summit in the Parco Naturale Regionale dell'Antola north of Genoa. The summit ridge is the watershed — one side drains to the Ligurian Sea, the other to the Scrivia and Po. Wolves have been confirmed resident since 2015. The summit panorama is exceptional: Ligurian Sea south, the Alps north, Monviso visible 150 km. The approach through chestnut forest has abundant porcini in October.
