Coll de la Garga is a nice climb. The lower part can be done in two other ways than described here: via the CV-721 which gives you four consecutive hairpin bends in the climb, or via the village of Murla. The road between Murla and Fleix was resurfaced around 2018 and therefore has excellent road surfaces, but is very irregular in terms of climbing: it has steep sections up to 14%, alternating with less steep sections and short descents. On this section, you cycle mostly through a pine forest. Between Fleix and Benimaurell, the climb is very steady and not steep. In the village of Benimaurell there is a steep part (16%) which is the start of the last 3 steep kilometres: the road gets much narrower, and the average percentage of climbing in these last kilometres is 10% (with peaks up to 16%). On the way, there are some beautiful views towards the coast.

Coll de la Garga is een mooie klim. Het onderste deel kan op twee andere manieren worden gedaan dan hier beschreven: via de CV-721 waardoor je vier opeenvolgende haarspeldbochten in de klim krijgt, of via het dorpje Murla. De weg tussen Murla en Fleix is rond 2018 herasfalteerd en kent dus uitstekend wegdek, maar is qua klimmen zeer onregelmatig: er zitten steile stukjes tot 14% in, afgewisseld met minder steile stukken en korte afdalingen. Je fietst op dit gedeelte grotendeels door een dennenbosgebied. Tussen Fleix en Benimaurell is de klim zeer regelmatig en niet steil. In het dorpje Benimaurell volgt een steil stukje (16%) wat de opmaat is voor de laatste twee steile kilometers: de weg wordt veel smaller, en het gemiddelde stijgingspercentage komt in die laatste kilometers uit op 10% (met uitschieters tot 16%). Onderweg heb je soms prachtig uitzicht richting de kust.

Oefff. From the south (the CV-720) I found it tough. But with a nice reward at the top (beautiful view + optional visit to a terrace) and a nice gliding downhill back to Denia.

Oefff. Vanaf het zuiden (de CV-720) vond ik 'em pittig. Maar met een mooie beloning bovenaan (prachtig uitzicht + optioneel terrasbezoek) en heerlijk zoevend naar beneden terug naar Denia.

Great climb. If you take this climb from the CV-721, the climb gets a bit longer, has some more height meters and an extra hairpin bend. Also known locally as La Vall de Laguar.

Gave klim. Indien je deze klim vanaf de CV-721 pakt, wordt de klim nog ietsje langer, heb je nog wat meer hoogtemeters en een extra haarspeldbocht. Staat lokaal ook bekend als La Vall de Laguar.
