2,165m high mountain is the highest point in the Emilia-Romagna region. It encompasses the comuni of Fiumalbo, Sestola, Fanano and Riolunato in the province of Modena. Its interior houses a military structure; for this reason, during the Cold War, access to the peak was forbidden. Due to altitude, the climate is subarctic (Köppen: Dfc), similar to other high mountains in the Alps, and is a frequented winter ski resort.

The local scenery on the ground is as follows.
