In this episode, we take a deep dive into the fascinating world of summit crosses.

From their origins in the Middle Ages to their evolving symbolism over time, these mountain-top markers represent a unique intersection between faith, human ambition, and our connection to nature.

Join us as we explore how summit crosses have transformed from religious waypoints into powerful symbols of personal triumph and cultural heritage. We'll also discuss the debates surrounding their presence in natural landscapes today, touching on both environmental concerns and religious inclusivity.

Featuring insights from David Passarelli, an Italian hiking expert, this episode sheds light on the enduring relevance of these historic monuments and what they mean for us in the modern era.
