Cima della Lombarda, Mountain summit at France-Italy border, Maritime Alps.
The Cima della Lombarda rises to 2800 meters elevation, featuring steep slopes and marked trails that lead to its prominent peak in the Maritime Alps.
The mountain marks a long-standing natural boundary between France and Italy, serving as a territorial reference point since the establishment of modern borders.
The summit contains a stone niche housing a Madonna statue and a cross, reflecting the religious traditions of both French and Italian alpine communities.
Hikers can access the summit through established paths from both the French side near Isola 2000 resort and the Italian side through the Terre Rosse valley.
The mountain stands between two distinct watersheds, separating the flow of waters between the Tinea River and the Stura di Demonte valleys.
