This is the highest viewpoint of Portuguese Estremadura, with a strategic location on Montejunto hills, also known as the "balcony of Estremadura". From there you can enjoy part of the mountain, its geological structure, marks of the erosion that has shaped it, beautiful landscapes, farmland divided into small pieces with a varied agriculture, and rural settlements especially the village of Pragança.

 

The name of this viewpoint comes to the fact there’s a cross, built in the twentieth century.
