    There are a few views on the Ave trail, with this one being the best. There is also a bench for rest.

      "Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to erect "their" cross at this spot. (...) These wayside crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and aims to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who conquered death (...). The cross is a part of our lives, just as it was a part of the life of Jesus. Therefore, I hope that many people... will seek out the wayside crosses, whether as places of silence and respite before God, or as places of community gathering, prayer, and praise."
