Monte Corchia, Mountain peak in Alpi Apuane, Tuscany, Italy

Monte Corchia reaches 1677 meters in elevation and features two summits connected by a long ridge with varied rock formations on its western face.

The establishment of the Alpi Apuane Natural Park in 1985 marked a turning point in the protection of Monte Corchia's geological and natural resources.

Local inhabitants formed a cooperative to manage Corchia Park, creating employment opportunities while preserving the mountain's natural and geological heritage.

Access to Monte Corchia starts from Levigliani village, reached via the A12 Genova-Livorno motorway, with parking available near the western face at Passo Croce.

The mountain contains Italy's largest cave system, the Antro del Corchia, which extends through its interior with numerous underground passages and chambers.

Elevation above the sea: 1,677 m

GPS coordinates: 44.03558,10.29359
