Montalto Carpasio

Few communities in Liguria have a past so closely bound to the union of two mountain municipalities as Montalto Carpasio. The present comune was created in 2018 from Montalto Ligure and Carpasio, two settlements in the upper Valle Argentina above the Argentina River. Stone-built lanes, small squares and olive groves give the area the character of Liguria’s inland Imperia province, far from the busier coast. Carpasio is home to the Museo della Resistenza, which documents the partisan movement in western Liguria during the Second World War. Forested slopes and terraced cultivation frame local roads through the valley. Find related webcams in the surrounding area to build a fuller picture of Valle Argentina and inland Liguria.
