The climb is steep and the last few meters to the summit cross are along a steel cable and over steel steps. But when do you ever get the chance to sign a summit book 😉

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to build “their” cross on this spot. (...) These 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 wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who conquered death (…). The cross is part of our lives, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I hope that many people ... visit the crosses, whether as places of silence and taking a breath before God, whether as places of community gathering, prayer and praise of God. (Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig in: “Crosses... Small sacred monuments as signs of popular piety”)

Only the last 10-20 meters to the summit are a bit critical. For those with a head for heights, however, it can be done at any time.
