Valle Antrona

Valle Antrona (Antrona Valley) is a valley of the Alps, situated in the Pennine range. The valley is drained by the Ovesca, a tributary of the Toce at Villadossola.

The highest mountain in the valley is the Pizzo d'Andolla (3,656 m, 11,995 ft). There are several large lakes in the valley: Lago d'Antrona, Lago Alpe dei Cavalli, (also named Lago di Cheggio), Lago di Campliccioli, Lago Cingino and Lago Camposecco.

The Alta Valle Antrona Natural Park is located within the valley.

The valley is located in the Province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, in the Piedmont region of Italy. It is politically divided into three municipalities: Antrona Schieranco, Montescheno and Borgomezzavalle.
