Monte Chiappo (1700 m above sea level) is a large grassy mountain, vaguely shaped like a large pyramid, which rises on the main axis of the Ántola Chain. The Stàffora and Curone streams originate on its northern side; for this reason, near the summit the mountain range divides into three buttresses: the easternmost one divides the Stàffora Valley from the Trebbia Valley, rising further into Monte Lésima; the central one heads north, forming the watershed between Stàffora and Curone, while the western one, on which Monte Ebro stands, separates the Borbera Valley from the Curone Valley.
The summit of the mountain is the meeting point between the regional borders of Piedmont, Emilia-Romagna and Lombardy.
