Cima di Pertegà

Cima di Pertegà (Italian) or Cime de la Pertègue (French) is a mountain located on the French-Italian border between Piemonte and Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur.

Since the Paris Peace Treaties, signed in February 1947, however, it is shared by Italy and France.

Going east a mountain ridge starts from Cima di Pertegà dividing Carnino valley (a north) from the central part of the Tanarello valley, while going South the Cima di Pertegà is divided by the nearby Cime de l'Eveque and Monte Bertrand by the steep saddle of the colle delle Selle Vecchie.

On the Italian side of the mountain runs a former-military dirt road connecting Monesi (a village of the municipality of Triora) with the colle di Tenda.

[8] The mountain is accessible by walking tracks on steep meadows starting from the Colle dei Signori (North of the summit), Colle delle Selle Vecchie (South) or Passo di Framargal (East).
