[2] Monte Monega is the tripoint where the valleys of Argentina, Giara di Rezzo and Arroscia meet.

Also the territories of three comuni (Montegrosso Pian Latte, Rezzo and Molini di Triora) meet on the top of the mountain,[3] which is marked by a Summit cross.

[4] The slopes of Monte Monega were deforested during past centuries in order to increase pasture land.

The highest part of the mountain is still used as a grazing area for local cattle, and maintains a good amount of biodiversity.

[5] The summit of Monte Monega can be easily reached on foot starting from Colle del Garezzo (NW) or from Passo della Teglia[6] (SW).
