Monte Penello, Mountain summit in Liguria, Italy

Monte Penello rises to 999 meters above sea level in the Ligurian Apennines, forming part of a mountain chain in northern Italy.

The mountain contains remnants from World War II near its peak, including military structures that served strategic purposes during the conflict.

The mountain features an ancient tank structure near the summit that local communities used to store winter snow for use in spring and summer.

Hikers can reach the summit through the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri trail system, with the Bivacco Arnaldo Bellani mountain shelter located near the peak.

Monte Penello stands alongside two other notable summits that form the Sentiero delle Baracche de Pria, a recognized walking route in the region.
