Prati is a small comune (municipality) in the Liguria region of northern Italy, located in the province of Savona. It is a hill village in the upper Val Bormida area, situated inland from the Ligurian coast.
Like many settlements in this part of Liguria, Prati is a compact historic village whose economy has traditionally been tied to the surrounding mountainous terrain. The area is characterised by the wooded hills and valleys typical of the Ligurian Apennines.
