Monte Viso

Encyclopedia : M : MO : MON : Monte Viso

Monte Viso (also called Monviso) is a mountain in the Cottian Alps in Italy close to the French border. The Monte Viso is famous because of its pyramid-like shape and since it surmounts all its neighbouring peaks by at least about 500m it can be seen by far away.

On the northern slopes of the Monte Viso are the headwaters of the Po, the so called Pian del Re (2020m).
