    Tips

    Hiking

    Ana Cross marks the spot of a prehistoric burial mound, a funerary monument from the Late Neolithic period to the Late Bronze Age. It’s topped by a modern replacement of a medieval wayside cross, which marks an old moorland crossing. You get lovely views over the moors from this spot. When the heather blooms purple in summer it is especially photogenic.
