Monte Sciguello, Mountain peak in Liguria, Italy

Monte Sciguello is a mountain peak in Liguria that rises to approximately 1,100 meters in elevation. It forms a distinct point within the northern section of the Apennine range.

The name derives from the Ligurian dialect word sciguelu, meaning whistle or flute. The Italian military geographical map (IGM) records the spelling "Sciguello", which does not match the local pronunciation. The summit stands at 1,103 m on the Ligurian Apennines, south of the Ligurian-Po watershed, above Cogoleto and Varazze.

The name comes from the Ligurian dialect word sciguelu, meaning whistle or flute. The IGM topographic map spells it "Sciguello", which does not match the local pronunciation. On the summit stand a cross and several memorial plaques.

The peak is accessible via marked trails that can be reached from surrounding areas and are regularly maintained. Proper footwear and water are recommended, especially when planning longer walks at this elevation.

On the south-eastern slopes, at 785 m, lies the Pian Canei wetland, an extensive marshy area unusual at this altitude in the Ligurian Apennines. The summit itself carries a cross and several memorial plaques, and the view reaches both Savona and Genoa along the Riviera.
