Monte Meta (or simply La Meta[2]) is a mountain of the Apennine Mountains, in Southern Italy.
Geography
[edit | edit source]The mountain is part of the Monti della Meta range and lies in the Parco Nazionale d'Abruzzo, Lazio e Molise. It includes a tripoint where the Italian regions of Lazio, Abruzzo and Molise meet; concerned comuni are Alfedena (AQ), Picinisco (FR) and Pizzone (IS).[3] The tripoint is located on its western sub-summit, at 2185 m, which is also the highest point of Molise.[2]
Toponymy
[edit | edit source]More than Monte Meta (masculine) the mountain is usually called in the spoken language la Meta (feminine);[4] it gives the name to the Monti della Meta, an Apennine sub-range.
Access to the summit
[edit | edit source]
Due to an important population of Rupicapra pyrenaica ssp. ornata living on the mountain, the access to the area is strictly regulated in order to reduce disturbance. A single footpath (named L1) is accessible to hikers during the summer. Also the days of the week for hikes and the number of hikers admitted per day are fixed, and a previous authorization must be requested to the natural park administration.[5]
