    On the 1,286 meter high summit plateau of nearby Monte Beigua, there seemed to be no more space between the numerous distinctive transmitters, which is why the Croce del Beigua was built here in a secluded, not beautiful, but in beautiful surroundings.
    Some enduro routes start in the area. A nice long and sometimes bumpy descent awaits you to Sassello - first on the Alta Via, later on path 666, which leads past the ruins of the Casa della Bandita.

        The concept chosen by the architect for the "Croce del Beigua" does not conform to the usual pattern followed by many summit crosses. Rather than having a classic base as its foundation, it "grows" out of the roof of the chapel standing there, rising towards the sky in a massive form. The choice of material used for the construction – exposed concrete – clearly indicates its affiliation with the era of so-called "Brutalism." This is a modern architectural style that was popular in the post-World War II era and deliberately avoids cladding or painted concrete. Another striking feature is that one of the cross's two crossbeams is fitted with a railing.
