About: This is a wonderful, relatively easy-to-access viewpoint, perfect for a picnic on a nice day or to watch the sunset (or sunrise). It offers 360° views as it is situated on top of a hill. There is a huge cross at the top as well. The road to get up winds around the hill and can be rough and somewhat narrow, but there is usually not too many cars and there are wider areas for two vehicles to pass. If you go slow, there is no danger. Any car can make it, but 4×4 is always a better option. At the top is a makeshift parking area, and then you take a short walk up a nice, wide, paved path to the cross. It is free, and there is nothing sold there. You can see the surrounding mountains and wind turbines. It’s great for kids to run around.
