The Faggio dei Tre Comuni Refuge is located in the locality of the same name in the Municipality of Bedonia, in the province of Parma. It is located about 1,400 meters above sea level, on the slopes of Mount Trevine, a few meters from the border between Emilia Romagna and Liguria.

Commissioned to the Lucio Serpagli architecture studio in Parma by the Valli del Taro and Ceno Mountain Community, it was built between 2003 and 2006 as a multifunctional building. A recovering project implemented through the use of local stones.

Subsequently granted in management to the CAI of Parma, it was inaugurated for the first time in 2011.

Statue of the Madonna on Monte Penna

Highlight • Monument

With its 1,735 meters the view from Mount Penna is extraordinary. At the foot of the statue and the chapel you can also see a line of sea on the Ligurian coast on clear days. On the opposite side we notice a panoramic view of the Pennino, Mount Trevine, the Nave, Mount Gottero further to the right with the peaks of the Apuan Alps behind it.

Monte Penna Summit and Madonna Statue

Highlight • Summit

Monte Penna is a relief of the Ligurian Apennines (1735 m s.l.m.) included in the territory of the Aveto Natural Park. The northern side shows a very steep slope of bare basalt rock, while the southern one, surrounded by the Penna State Forest, appears softer and more luxuriant. The mountain overlooks the Valle del Ceno and that of the Taro, whose rivers flow from its slopes.

The summit, located on the border between Emilia-Romagna and Liguria, houses a statue of the Madonna enthroned, facing the Val di Taro and the town of Alpe, because it was carried by its inhabitants as a devotional sign, as well as a stone chapel, with the entrance to Liguria. Worthy of note are the panoramic views (almost devoid of signs of anthropization) with a panorama that sweeps 360 degrees up to the Ligurian Sea. The ancients believed it was the seat of the Celtic divinity Penn, from which it takes its name.

The top can be reached via an easy path (871) which starts from the Passo dell'Incisa. The east side that comes from Monte Trevine is more difficult, where the passages on the rock are facilitated by chains.

Incisa Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Crossing point of the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri and starting point for excursions to the Penna and Aiona mountains.
The history of this place seems to be linked to the Latin term "incido," which means "cut." It is said that the Romans, tired of the resistance of the Ligurian tribes, decided to cut down the Apennine forests to weaken them. The Ligurians were masters of guerrilla warfare, while the Romans preferred the open field, and the removal of trees would have facilitated their strategy.

Casermette Hut on Mount Penna

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Casermette del Monte Penna refuge is located in the Aveto Regional Natural Park, about an hour away from the sea, from the motorway exits (Lavagna and Borgo Val di Taro) and from Chiavari station. Originally a logistics base for the State Forestry Corps in the 1920s, it is now known as "Rifugio Penna".
It is located in a picturesque mountainous area between Mount Penna (1,735 meters above sea level) and Mount Pennino, surrounded by a beautiful fir and beech forest.
It offers accommodation, activities such as hiking and rock climbing, and is equipped for E-MTB adventures.

Nave del Penna

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Penna nave is a conical glacial conformation that lies on the north side of Mount Penna. Its shape recalls the hull of a ship and in the center you can also find an altar where mass is celebrated once a year. The wall surrounding the depression is known by the name Rocce della Neve, a real barrier that connects the Chiodo pass to Mount Penna and Trevine.
