Punta Quattro Sorelle, Mountain summit in Piedmont, Italy

Punta Quattro Sorelle is a mountain summit in the Cozie Alps, positioned at the border between Italy and France. The landscape features steep slopes, rocky terrain, and sparse vegetation typical of high Alpine regions.

This mountain was entirely Italian territory until the Paris Treaty of 1947 redrew Alpine borders after World War II. Military fortifications from the pre-war era remain visible throughout the surrounding region.

The mountain marks the end of the Catena dei Re Magi, the ridge separating the Valle della Rho from the Valle Stretta above Bardonecchia. Its Italian name, Punta Quattro Sorelle, becomes Pointe des Quatre Sœurs in French, and both forms appear on maps and signs along the border paths.

The summit lies at the end of the Re Magi chain, between the Rho and Stretta valleys above Bardonecchia; approach routes start from the Bardonecchia basin. The Italian slope belongs to the Natura 2000 site Punta Quattro Sorelle (IT1110049), 1,319 hectares shared with the Les Arnauds area. Remains of pre-war military batteries stand in the surrounding zone, so stay on paths near the structures.

The Italian slope, together with the Les Arnauds area, forms the Natura 2000 site Punta Quattro Sorelle (IT1110049), which covers 1,319 hectares. The summit closes the Catena dei Re Magi, the ridge separating the Valle della Rho from the Valle Stretta above Bardonecchia.
