The mountain is located at the convergence of three valleys: Val Chisola to the north and north-east, Val Noce to the south and the Grandubbione valley to the west. Colle Sperina divides it from Monte Freidour along the Noce / Chisola watershed, Colle Prà l'Abbà from Monte Sartonet along the Chisola / Dubbione watershed and Colle Colletto separates it from Monte Fajè following the Noce / Dubbione watershed, in the direction of Colle del Crò. [1] The relief is mainly covered by dense broad-leaved woods, which thin out on the southern slope. Near the top there is a commemorative plaque dedicated to the incident where some Royal Air Force soldiers perished on nearby Mount Freidour.
The mountain takes its name from the fact that "seven municipalities converge there with their territories". However, it should be noted that currently the municipalities that actually converge on the top of the mountain are only four: Cumiana, Pinasca, Pinerolo and Frossasco. Even the municipal territory of Giaveno (which goes as far south as the Sperina hill) and that of San Pietro Val Lemina (which reaches as far as the Colle Colletto) are very close to the top of the mountain, while those of Roletto and Cantalupa remain more secluded. Monte Sette Confini represents the highest elevation reached by the territory of the municipality of Pinerolo.
