The mountain belongs to the Biellese Alps, a sub-range of Pennine Alps; the Bocchetta del Lago, a pass at 2,026 m, divides it from the rest of the chain. The Mucrone is located between Elvo and Cervo valleys, and belongs to the Province of Biella. Administratively its main summit is the tripoint at which the borders of the municipalities of Biella, Sordevolo and Pollone meet. It visually dominates the Sanctuary of Oropa. On a subsummit at 2,302 m stands a huge metal cross. On a second subsummit, NW of the main elevation, stands the upper station of an old branch of the Oropa cableway, dismantled in 1982.
