From there, you will be able to appreciate the valley of Vaux and the summit of Montabon.

Hiking

Once again, the builders of this small sacred monument chose a highly exposed location for the stone cross, which overlooks the expansive landscape. A multi-tiered base rises from the rocky subsoil. This culminates in a round shaft, estimated at two meters high, topped by a capital. Above it stands the actual cross, a Christian symbol of the redemptive act of Jesus, the incarnate Son of God.
