ペザロ州とウルビーノ州の絶景の山頂・トップ20

Perhaps, in front of this small sacred monument, which the hiker encounters here in the form of a cross, a few short sentences by Pope Francis, who died on Easter Monday last year, might be of interest (address of April 5, 2024): “Feel called (...) to carry into the Church and into the world a little of this immeasurable love that compelled Jesus to die for us on the cross. May the intimate closeness to Him, as it did for Francis [of Assisi], make you ever more humble, more united, more joyful, and more essential in your love for the cross and in your concern for the poor, witnesses of peace and prophets of hope in this age of ours, which struggles so much to recognize the presence of the Lord.” (Pope Francis)

To rest a bit

No comments needed, it has to be done... It is worth it for what it represents and also because it is quiet, without traffic.

The view when you reach the summit is not surprising, because the summit cross - which seems almost gigantic and can therefore be seen from afar - crowns Monte CATRIA and is unmistakable. But despite its enormous mass, the cross erected here does not seem overwhelming at all; in fact, due to the steel framework construction (the most famous example of which is the Eiffel Tower in Paris), it appears almost delicate.

This refuge lost in the mountains also allows you to prepare a barbecue, although you still have to bring everything you need there.

The panoramic view from this place is magnificent.

Everything is reminiscent of Marco Pantani
