The cross rock is somewhat hidden. It carries a summit cross, which gave it its name. It can be climbed from the back without any tools. You don't have to climb for this, but you should be sure-footed and not afraid of heights. Extra care is needed when the rock is wet. If there is snow or ice, you should skip the ascent. A summit book can be found in a tin box on the cross, in which you can write your names.
