It is part of the communal territory of Castelmagno and Demonte.
It connects the Valle Grana, which ends here, with the Vallone dell'Arma (a lateral of the Valle Stura di Demonte).[2] The name Colle dei Morti stems from fierce fighting which occurred nearby during the 18th century between Franco-Spanish and Piedmontese troops.[3]
