Becca di Nana, Mountain summit in Valle d'Aosta, Italy

Becca di Nana is a mountain in Valle d'Aosta located between Alta Val d'Ayas and Valtournenche. The peak features a sharp ridge of rock that stands out across the landscape.

The summit cross and stone altar were erected by Italian Alpini in memory of 18 comrades who died in an accident at the Gavia Pass in 1954. Since then a mass has been held on the summit every 14 August for the mountain dead. The mountain stands on the watershed between Valtournenche and Val d'Ayas, second peak after Monte Zerbion along the crest.

The summit cross was erected by Alpini soldiers in memory of 18 comrades who died in an accident at the Gavia Pass in 1954. Beside it stands a stone altar. Every 14 August a Mass is celebrated on the summit for those who died in the mountains.
