A two-tier brick stone base serves as the foundation for this summit cross, called CROIX DE MISSION. Compared to the massive masonry of the base, the cross itself appears comparatively filigree, almost fragile. There is also an antenna mast in sight, which towers far above the sign of faith as a sign of technical progress.

The effort of the climb is really worth it; the view from up there is truly breathtaking!

Superb mountain bike hike with a reward once you reach the top of the Saint Amand ridge with a magnificent panoramic view !!!
A fun course, a little physical and technical but largely feasible.
