Monte Borla, Mountain summit in Apuan Alps, Tuscany, Italy

Monte Borla is a 1,470-metre peak in the northern Apuan Alps, standing apart from the main watershed between Campocecina and the Foce di Pianza pass. Its summit marks the border between Carrara and Fivizzano. Near the top, the marble layers are covered by schist and, close to the summit, by limestone masses.
