⚠️ The trap
Good cognate but 'andare in montagna' means 'to go to the mountains' (the mountain region), while 'salire sulla montagna' means to climb a specific mountain. The preposition changes the meaning significantly.
To say "mountain — correct" in Italian:
montagna
"montagna" in English means:
mountain, mountains (also the region 'the mountains')
Example
"In estate andiamo in montagna per sfuggire al caldo."
"In summer we go to the mountains to escape the heat."
