Monte Taccone is a mountain located between Liguria and Piedmont in north-western Italy. It is part of the Ligurian Appennines.
Access to the summit
The mountain is accessible by signposed foothpaths departing from Bocchetta Pass or Isoverde (municipality of Campomorone).
The Alta Via dei Monti Liguri, a long-distance trail from Ventimiglia (province of Imperia) to Bolano (province of La Spezia), passes very close to the mountain's summit.[2]
Nature conservation
The northern slopes of Monte Taccone are included in the Capanne di Marcarolo natural park.[3]
