Monte San Petrone, Mountain summit in Haute-Corse, France
Monte San Petrone reaches an elevation of 1,767 meters above sea level, with a prominence of 1,210 meters in northeastern Corsica.
The mountain marks historical boundaries between four distinct cantons of Corsica: Saliceto, Nocario, Campana, and San-Lorenzo, defining territorial divisions.
Located in the Castagniccia region, the mountain slopes feature traditional sweet chestnut groves that have sustained local communities for generations.
The main hiking trail starts at Col de Prato on road D71, extending 6 kilometers with an 800-meter elevation gain through beech and pine forests.
Three distinct north-south ridges form the mountain structure: Mont Piano Maggiore, Monte San Pedrone, and the eastern ridge of Monte Negrine.
