Mercantour

The Mercantour-Argentera massif (French: Massif du Mercantour-Argentera; Italian: Massiccio del Mercantour-Argentera) is a massif in the Maritime Alps located astride the French departments of Alpes-Maritimes and Alpes-de-Haute-Provence and the Italian region of Piedmont. The name of the massif comes respectively from the summit of Mercantour, a secondary central summit, and from Mount Argentera, the highest point of the massif (3,297 m (10,817 ft)), entirely in Italy.
