Today will be a memorable day. You'll be heading over Cruz de Ferro, which sits at 4,938 feet (1,505 meters), and Alto Altar 4,970 feet (1,515 meters), the highest point of the pilgrimage. At Cruz de Ferro, a monument of cairn stones will await your contribution, so make sure to bring a rock to place nearby.
