Beautiful scenery, long climb, but never too steep, with a bunch of flat moments. There also a few villages where you can stop and recharge (in Santa Lucia there's a nice cycle-friendly pastry shop). Street is very good, car traffic is not a lot, but the views are rewarding.
This was the warm-up for my holiday. The drive to the base of the climb from Maspalomas is rather nondescript. Mind you; if you start from Maspalomas you often have a strong wind against you.
The climb itself is fantastic. Beautiful views, perfect roads and very traffic-free.
Dit was de opwarmer voor mijn vakantie. De rit naar de voet van de klim vanuit Maspalomas is nogal nikszeggend. Let wel; als je vanuit Maspalomas vertrekt heb je vaak een stevige wind tegen.
De klim zelf is fantastisch. Mooi uitzicht, perfecte wegen en zeer verkeersluw.
Done as a descent from San Bartolomé to El Doctoral. Very easy, even and beautiful scenery. Recommended.
Gedaan als afdaling vanuit San Bartolomé naar El Doctoral. Heel makkelijk, gelijkmatig en prachtig landschap. Aanrader.
Beautiful climb in a rough environment. It never gets really hard and there are regular descents in it to recuperate.
There is little car traffic and the road is in excellent condition.
Afterwards, I cycled on to Pico de las Nieves (highest point). This was already a lot spicier. Ideal combination!
Prachtige klim in een ruige omgeving. Het wordt nooit echt lastig en er zitten regelmatig wat afdalingen in om te recupereren.
Er is weinig autoverkeer en de weg is in uitstekende staat.
Ik heb erna nog doorgefietst naar Pico de las Nieves (hoogste punt). Dit was al heel wat pittiger. Ideale combinatie!
