The small sacred monument we encounter on Monte Gottero is perhaps the perfect place for a brief moment of reflection. A few years ago, Christiane Völkel commented on the wonderfully fitting sentence by the Italian poet Francesco Petrarch (who lived in the 14th century), "Everywhere one has heaven above oneself," as follows: "What is the use of prayer? This question moves me (...) I have found for myself the answer and the certainty that when I pray I am with the Lord, or rather, that when I pray he is often noticeably closer to me than usual. Thus, I retain the possibility of pouring out my heart to him (...) This intimacy with him makes me believe in him."

A beautiful mountain pass at 1,400 meters. There's a refuge, a small chapel, a monument—in short, everything you'd expect in a place like this. There's even a small clothing store. The only thing that's jarring is the constant noise of a combustion engine, which I assume is a generator for the refuge's operation.

Boundary stone dated 1828 between the Duchy of Parma and the Kingdom of Sardinia. From the Passo dei Due Santi to the Foce dei Tre Confini, there are thirteen boundary stones, and the route is in fact called the "Strada dei Termini." Boundary stone no. 1 is located at the Foce dei Tre Confini, while boundary stone no. 13 is at the Passo dei Due Santi. (http://www.escursioniliguria.it/schede_monti/m_gottero.htm)
