Ridge extending southeast, from the summit of Helsenhorn (3272 m) to Scatta d'Orogna pass (2461 m), and forming the watershed between the upper Val Buscagna (to the southeast of Alpe Devero), Alpe Veglia, and the upper Valle Bondolero. The ridge, sometimes also reported as "Monti di Buscagna" (i.e. "Buscagna Mountains"), includes from the north to the south: Pizzo di Boccareccio (3027 m) with Guglie di Cornera (also known as "I Gendarmi" or "I Due Gendarmi") along its northeastern extension, Punta dei Fornaletti (2830 m), and Punta delle Caldaie (2847 m).

Minerals are found in fissures of the gneisses of the Monte Leone nappe. Triassic dolomite marble crops out near Scatta d'Orogna pass.
