Each of these crosses, which travelers often encounter in the fields or, as here, on mountain peaks, is a reminder of the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. “Here on earth, His memory exists, but in the Kingdom of Heaven is His presence: this presence is the joy of those who have already attained salvation. Remembrance is our comfort, we who are still wanderers, traveling toward our homeland.” (Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, c. 1090–1153)

The square of San Sebastiano Curone is beautiful.

This small bridge, where it is also possible to pass with a vehicle, allows you to cross the Curone at this point.

This mountain rises to 1667 meters, marking the border between the municipalities of Cabella Ligure and Fabbrica Curone, in the province of Alessandria. A curious detail is that on different maps its name changes: some call it Monte Oserone, others even Monte Coserone, but the correct name is Monte Cosfrone.

Mount Ebro (1700 m above sea level) is the most beautiful and panoramic mountain of the entire Ántola chain, and one of the most beautiful and panoramic of the entire Ligurian Apennines. It is a gigantic pyramid, mostly grassy, that rises on the watershed between Borbera and Curone, a short distance from the important node of Mount Chiappo. The slopes of the mountain are generally wide and slightly sloping, covered by thick woods at lower altitudes, and meadows above 1400-1500 meters. The imposing southern slope is an exception, which towers, very high and steep, over the village of Aie di Cósola.

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.

Monument inaugurated in 1983 by President Pertini; dedicated to the partisan commander. Already an Air Force Lieutenant, immediately after the armistice of 8 September 1943 he took refuge in Dernice, in Val Curone, and organized the first rebels there. He fought in Val Curone, as brigade commander, until the great roundup of the winter of '44-'45; then he moved to the Oltrepò where he was appointed Chief of Staff of the newly formed "Gramsci" Division. He was fatally shot at the end of the battle for the liberation of Casteggio, on 26 April 1945. For the courage shown in the fight he was awarded a silver medal "in memory". A street in Casteggio remembers his sacrifice.

Very panoramic view of the Curone valley and the plain. Access is easy even if the last stretch is quite steep
