Slightly worse surface than on the ascent from Motril. The road to Gualchos is not very interesting, leading through an urban area. Passing through this village, it is worth stopping at La Ventera - a hotel and bar run by a cyclist and for cyclists. Above Gualchos it gets beautiful and interesting. The road there is not much used, you have to watch out for the stones that lie there sometimes. Further on, you can still go up towards Lujar or go down to Motril (a very exciting descent!).... read more

Trochę gorsza nawierzchnia niż przy podjeździe od strony Motril. Do Gualchos mało ciekawa droga wiodąca przez zurbanizowany teren. Przejeżdżając przez tę miejscowość warto zatrzymać się w La Ventera - to hotelik i bar prowadzony przez rowerzystę i dla rowerzystów.
Powyżej Gualchos robi się pięknie i ciekawie. Droga jest tam mało uczęszczana, trzeba uważać na leżące czasem kamienie. Dalej można jeszcze jechać w górę w stronę Lujar albo zjechać do Motril (bardzo emocjonujący zjazd!).
