The Ligurian Alps are a mountain range in northwestern Italy. A small part is located in France. They form the south-western extremity of the Alps, separated from the Apennines by the Colle di Cadibona. The Col de Tende and the Vermenagna valley[2] separate them from the Maritime Alps. They form the border between Piedmont in the north and Liguria in the south.
