The Cross of Lorraine (French: Croix de Lorraine) was originally a heraldic cross. The two-barred cross consists of a vertical line crossed by two shorter horizontal bars. In most renditions, the horizontal bars are "graded" with the upper bar being the shorter, though variations with the bars of equal length are also seen. The Lorraine name has come to signify several cross variations, including the patriarchal cross with its bars near the top.

Suchý is a westernmost summit of the main crest of Krivanska Mala Fatra mountains (National Park) on the north of Slovakia.
Shortest hike trial to Suchý starts in Turcianske Klacany (bus) and leads you through challet Klacianska Magura to the mountain top in about 3 hours and half. Another possibility is to take red marked trial from Strecno (train), via Challet under Suchy - this trial is about 4 hours long. There are much more combinations of trials in the area, check the map.
