Punta Valletta, Mountain summit between Metropolitan City of Turin, Italy and Savoie, France.
The mountain stands at 3,129 meters above sea level, featuring distinct blackish terrain near its peak within the Graian Alps range.
Early Alpine communities established settlements around the mountain, utilizing natural resources and creating essential trade routes between Italy and France.
The mountain name changes between Italian 'Punta Valletta' and French 'Pointe de la Vallette', reflecting the linguistic heritage of both bordering nations.
Multiple hiking paths lead to the summit from both Italian and French sides, with trailheads accessible from the towns of Bardonecchia and Modane.
The mountain serves as a natural laboratory for researchers studying climate patterns and ecological changes in high-altitude environments.
