The Monte Zatta is situated along the border between the Genoa and La Spezia provences. It is between the Sturla, Graveglia, Vara and Taro valleys. A more than one chilometres ridge long is its top. This top divides two very different slopes each other: the southern is a huge grassy and rocky slope, while the northern is a smooth slope with a beech wood. The marked difference between the slopes is linked to the mountain geologic texture: the Monte Zatta is formed by inclined and heavy sandstone layers. This is a pleasant loop. It offers sunny and panoramic southern slopes and the northern beech-wood either.
