Punta Martin, Mountain summit in Liguria, Italy

Punta Martin is a mountain summit in the Ligurian Apennines with steep slopes and natural rock formations along its walking paths. The peak stands at roughly 1000 meters elevation and provides views across surrounding ridges and down toward the coast.

Punta Martin lies on the ridge above Acquasanta, and its western forepeak at 933 m is the highest point in the municipality of Mele. The summit cross was placed by the Genova Sampierdarena branch of the CAI. The mountain is part of the Site of Community Importance Praglia–Pracaban–Monte Leco–Punta Martin (IT1331501).

The summit cross was placed by the CAI Sampierdarena subsection, a local branch of the Italian Alpine Club, and the mountain is a favourite objective of Genoese hikers. The rock face on the left bank of the Rio Baiardetta has long served as a climbing practice ground for Genoa's alpinists.

The shortest and steepest route leaves from Genova Acquasanta railway station on the Asti–Genova line and is rated EE, for experienced hikers. A gentler option starts at Passo di Praglia (865 m): a comfortable track to Monte Penello, then an obvious path to the summit cross, about 250 m of ascent and 13 km round trip, roughly two hours up. Trails also climb from Pra', Pegli and San Carlo di Cese.
