Actually, these are two climbs that you can also do separately. Combined, they give the two-stage rocket as described here. The first climb is the toughest and the most beautiful, but the second one is also great.
We are in the Basque country, so the 14-15% parts are just part of it.

Eigelijk zijn dit twee beklimmingen die je ook elk afzonderlijk kunt doen. Gecombineerd geven ze de tweetrapsraket zoals hier beschreven. De eerste klim is de zwaarste en de mooiste, maar ook de reede mag er zijn.
We zijn in het baskenland, dus de stukken van 14-15% horen er gewoon bij.

Aesthetically, this is a very nice climb with wonderful views and beautiful green landscapes. The Basque Country is very green and that makes the scenery, if you have a sunny day, a feast for the eyes.
This climb of the Azurki is a slop for the calves and the upper legs. The climb starts with about three kilometres above 10% average. Just to wake you up. This first part is over rather bumpy tarmac. No holes or potholes, more as if the road surface had not been rolled over. Then follows a descent and then the tough climbing begins again. The gradients here are also well in excess of 10%. The road surface is fine in the second part. I haven't seen any traffic other than a flock of sheep.
I suspect that the Tour of the Basque Country passes here, given the number of names painted on the road surface.
Nice climb, but oh so tough!

Esthetisch is dit een hele mooie klim met prachtige vergezichten en mooie groene landschappen. In het Baskenland is het erg groen en dat maakt de omgeving als je een zonnige dag hebt, een lust voor het oog.
Deze klim van de Azurki is een slopertje voor de kuiten en de bovenbenen. De klim begint met een kilometer of drie boven 10% gemiddeld. Gewoon, om even wakker te worden. Dit eerste deel gaat over vrij hobbelig asfalt. Geen gaten of putten, meer alsof de wals niet over het wegdek is geweest. Daarna volgt een afdaling en dan begint het stevige klimwerk opnieuw. Hier gaan de stijgingspercentages ook dik boven de 10% uit komen. Het wegdek is in het tweede gedeelte prima. Ik ben geen ander verkeer tegen gekomen dan een kudde schapen.
Ik vermoed dat de ronde van het Baskenland hier langs voert, gezien de hoeveelheid namen die op het wegdek geschilderd zijn.
Leuke klim, maar o zo pittig!
